Tunica County board accepts 2025 tax roll after staff details drop in assessed value
Summary
County staff presented the 2025–26 tax roll and explained the county’s assessed value fell from about $216 million in 2024 to $201,302,007 in 2025, driven mainly by personal property removals; supervisors accepted the roll.
County staff presented the Tunica County 2025–26 tax roll at the July 7 Board of Supervisors meeting and the board voted to accept the assessments.
Norma Anderson told supervisors the county’s assessed value for 2024 was about $216,000,000 while the 2025 assessed value is listed in staff materials as $201,302,007. Anderson cited large decreases in assessed personal property as the principal cause, telling the board that one business (noted in the staff report as “Shook”) removed roughly $9,994,279 in assessed personal property and an energy-related equipment removal accounted for approximately $2,640,290 in assessed-value loss.
Board members questioned the components of the change, asked how fee-in-lieu amounts are calculated and discussed how school tax portions are reported separately in county materials. Following the presentation and questions, a motion to accept the assessment of real and personal property was moved, seconded and recorded as carried.
The board’s acceptance advances the county’s administrative schedule for millage calculations and budget planning. Staff indicated the fee-in-lieu calculation and the breakdown of county versus school portions are included in the meeting packet.
