Property Value Appeals
If you have questions regarding the values on your tax statement, the assessor's staff will be available to discuss the values with you. If you desire, an appraiser will review your appraisal with you and answer any other questions you may have.
If after your discussion with the assessor's staff, you feel the market value shown on your tax statement is too high, we encourage you to file an appeal with the Board of Property Tax Appeals.
