The Board of Review meets in March each year to handle property assessment and taxable appeals, as well as poverty exemption appeals. These meetings take place during the third week of March, starting on a Monday, and last for four days.
In addition to the March meetings, the Board also meets in July and December. The July meeting focuses on correcting clerical errors, resolving mutual mistakes of fact, and reviewing any poverty exemption appeals that weren’t presented in March. Principal Residence Exemptions are no longer discussed at the July and December meetings. Please contact the assessor for any concerns of that matter. The July meeting happens on the Tuesday after the third Monday of the month, while the December meeting takes place on the Tuesday after the second Monday.
