Iron County assessor shows Greenbelt audit results, new GIS and mobile QuickCapture tool to speed reappraisals
Summary
Assessor staff presented county Greenbelt statistics and demonstrated a custom GIS 'insights' map and a QuickCapture mobile tool that captured routes and more than 5,000 photos in a month, enabling faster audits and reappraisals and potential machine-learning checks for missed improvements.
Assessor staff presented a broad review of Iron County—armland Assessment Act (Greenbelt) data and showed a new GIS-guided workflow they say will speed audits, reappraisals and enforcement.
The presentation highlighted county-scale numbers: private assessed acres in Iron County total about 779,593 acres, of which roughly 479,000 acres (about 66% of taxed acres) are in Greenbelt classifications. The assessor's office said about 4,700 parcels currently have Greenbelt status and noted the program represents a substantial tax shift; staff estimated a notional figure of "almost $6.5 million" in market-tax value redistributed by the Greenbelt program (the office stressed the figure is an aggregation of hypothetical market taxes if parcels were taxed at non-Greenbelt rates).
