Gage County Board of Equalization members approved the meeting agenda and the minutes of the prior session on June 20, 2025, and announced a separate discussion of the county's property-valuation process to take place at the Board of Supervisors meeting that followed. Board members and staff told property owners that protests are due on Monday and that three referee dates already have been scheduled.
The procedural approvals were routine. A motion to approve the agenda was moved by Dorn and seconded by Adams; the board voted six in favor and the motion carried. Dorn then moved to approve the minutes of the prior meeting, seconded by Claybaugh; that motion also passed 6-0.
Board members clarified that the upcoming valuation discussion at the Board of Supervisors meeting would cover the evaluation process itself and would not address individual properties. A staff member identified as Patty said, “Protests are due Monday,” and board members encouraged anyone with valuation questions to contact the county office before filing a formal protest. The board noted there are informal review days intended to resolve questions before the protest period and that three referee hearing dates have been set.
No formal changes to valuations or appeal outcomes were made during the Equalization meeting. With no further business reported, the board adjourned the session at 08:34.
The announcements affect property owners considering appeals of assessed value: they should contact the county office for clarification and, if necessary, file protests by the stated Monday deadline to preserve appeal rights.
