Assessment Appeal Board

The Assessment Appeal Board (AAB) is an independent body that reviews disputes regarding property assessments, which determine how much property owners should be taxed. When a homeowner disagrees with their property assessment set by the local tax authority, they can appeal to the AAB. The board listens to both the homeowner's and the authority's viewpoints, examines evidence, and makes a decision. This process ensures fair assessments and helps resolve conflicts over property values that are used for taxation purposes. The AAB aims to maintain transparency and fairness in the property assessment system.
