Glynn County assessors report fewer appeals; aim to finish hearings by Dec. 31
Summary
At its Oct. 9 meeting, the Glynn County Board of Assessors heard a 2025 appeals update from Chief Appraiser Ryan Glissen showing about 790 appeals this season (down from roughly 1,300 last year), certified 703 to the Board of Equalization, and approved routine minutes and a consent agenda that included a parcel omitted from the emailed packet.
The Glynn County Board of Assessors heard an appeals update Oct. 9 at a meeting called to order by the board chair.
Ryan Glissen, chief appraiser at the Glynn County Property Appraisal Office, told the board the office has received about 790 appeals this season, down from roughly 1,300 last year. Glissen said the county’s appeal count appears to have been affected by House Bill 581 and House Bill 92. He said 782 appeals have come before the board of assessors as of the meeting, 703 appeals have been certified to the Board of Equalization, and eight appeals still must come before the board. Glissen said the office will issue 30-day notices where appropriate to preserve taxpayers’ further appeal rights.
The appeals hearings began “last week,” Glissen said, and are being held at the Old Courthouse across Reynolds Street. He said new construction and other growth in the digest are at or slightly ahead of last year’s levels and that the office’s goal is to complete the appeal season by Dec. 31. “We’re off and running,” Glissen said of the hearings.
Separately, the board approved two routine items by voice vote. A motion to approve the minutes of the Sept. 11, 2025, meeting carried with no opposition recorded. The board also approved the consent agenda after the chair noted one parcel (item number 4) had not been included in the emailed packet; the chair said members could have pulled the item for discussion but no member requested removal. The chair said some other items in the packet had been corrected from what was emailed.
During new business the chair said the board may reduce the number of monthly meetings next year and could cancel the next scheduled October meeting if it is not necessary. The board chair also indicated a need for an executive session and then adjourned the meeting.
The meeting record shows no formal roll-call vote tallies for the two approvals; both were taken by voice vote and recorded as approved with no opposition.
