A county conservation staff member told the board there were \"3 CUVA continuations, 3 CUVA renewals, 4 CUVA new applications, and 1 FLPA renewal application in front of you.\" The board voted to approve the CUVA and FLPA items; Commissioner Kelly stated he would abstain from the CUVA votes because one application related to his interests.

Later the board approved 36 motor vehicle appeals after a motion; the motion carried with one member, Justin, recorded as abstaining. The board then considered homestead exemptions: the meeting record shows a motion to approve 19 homestead exemptions and to deny one. County staff explained the denial was because, \"per Georgia state law, a married couple can only have 1 homestead anywhere,\" and the couple in question owned two residences. The motion to approve the 19 exemptions and deny one passed.

All actions were taken during the board’s regular agenda and were routine, according to staff. Several board members asked for the lists supporting the votes to be emailed to them in advance of future meetings for review. After completing these agenda items the board voted to go into executive session.

The approvals consolidate multiple related assessment items into single votes rather than separate actions for each application; where members abstained the minutes record those abstentions.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Jones County Board of Tax Assessors 07-03-2025","oneSentenceSummary","The board approved three CUVA continuations, three CUVA renewals, four new CUVA applications, an FLPA renewal, 36 motor vehicle appeals, and 19 homestead exemptions while denying one under Georgia state law.","taxTitle","Jones County, Georgia","taxId",28422,"location","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":56,"_73":56},6179051,"Jones County staff report 200 property appeals, say corrected tax notices already sent",216,589000,805000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5134160-21bc8f3adf0f46fdf57afc0e000bc095&start=589&end=805","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5134160-21bc8f3adf0f46fdf57afc0e000bc095/thumbnail_589000.jpg","/articles/6179051/Jones-County/Georgia/Jones-County-staff-report-200-property-appeals-say-corrected-tax-notices-already-sent","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6179051-81fb885bd870c1aae26fbdd6b6259a68/orig.mp4?Expires=1774880933&Signature=Bd4kPglazi~WW1tEnCD-B718RA3qtk8Hbzdvj3rGrpWkDgXxPz5uc4ZWniZwN9ruISlBg0I0PHrwf1zdp6rPPPz-~tUpUQSKqa1S2l-kL23q7TlZ2dz~2IuHzbRAb06HCgrpynEpgZwHoFC1GLip5psryyKv4AyCMAKFl0N4caVIr0XJPquk6xAVbu1giez6hhSRKjslvK-r-WbHL20mxDDFZzp7WjpIkLHTiX3IZIwoaTr2Fs2OisO78MN9Ot6E9bXht0n-zPGWK18f6zDSA2XDI7E~VCREXnVFODmkPL5CwVtZKIM59AqaFJia2~u~Cj6vZeJbs-tX5NUq-g1qaw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","At a July 3 Jones County meeting, county staff reported the county has received 200 appeals during the 45‑day appeal period and said corrected tax notices and mapping corrections have already been sent to affected taxpayers.

The appeals update came from Jim, a staff member, who told the board, \"we've received a total of 200 appeals.\" He said 169 of those relate to valuation changes and that \"1 of those had been settled\"; he also reported \"a 189 total appeal still pending.\" The appeal deadline is about two weeks away, Jim said, and county staff said the current volume is low enough that the county expects to be able to submit its tax digest on schedule if the number of outstanding appeals remains under the jurisdictional threshold.

The update explained the county issues 30‑day letters when taxpayers are offered an adjusted value and have 30 days to continue an appeal or accept the change. Jim said staff have been handling incoming appeals without being overwhelmed and credited public outreach — including a brochure prepared by staff and public relations efforts — with helping residents understand the process.

Staff also described several corrected first notices that were mailed to fix errors or omissions. Examples discussed at the meeting included removing a duplicate item that was being taxed, adding machinery and equipment that likely represented a business inventory or equipment discovered after notices were drafted, and parcel‑number changes resulting from mapping work. Those mapping corrections included a change tied to Middle Georgia Mapping and a parcel placed on a submap labeled \"45a\" after a split on Allen Green Boulevard, county staff said.

Board members asked that the list of corrected notices be emailed ahead of future meetings so they could review them; staff agreed to provide that list.

If the number of unresolved appeals remains below the statutory or procedural threshold when the appeal period closes, county staff told the board they anticipate submitting the digest on time. The board moved on to other agenda items and later recessed into an executive session.

Meeting remarks about appeals and notices came during the agenda item for property assessment appeals and notice corrections; the county will monitor appeals through the deadline and report back if volumes increase.","At a July 3 meeting, county staff said they received 200 appeals during the 45‑day appeal period, described most as valuation disputes, and said corrected first notices and mapping fixes have been mailed to affected taxpayers.","actionData","errors"]
