Property Tax Assessment Board

The Property Tax Assessment Board is a local government body that evaluates the value of real estate properties within a community to ensure property taxes are fairly assigned. When property owners believe their property's assessed value is incorrect, they can appeal to this board. The board reviews evidence, such as recent sales and property features, and may adjust the appraisal if justified. Their goal is to ensure that property valuations accurately reflect market value, leading to equitable tax burdens across property owners. Essentially, they serve as a neutral panel to resolve disputes and maintain fairness in property taxation.
