Summary
County staff and consultants presented the 2026 property revaluation schedule and appeals process at a public hearing; the board was told the schedule will be formally presented for adoption on Dec. 16 at the Anson County Courthouse, and property owners will receive notices with opportunities to appeal.
Anson County held a public hearing on the 2026 revaluation schedule and the rules used to calculate assessed values for real property. A county presenter said the hearing was required by general statute and outlined the timeline: the schedule will be presented again for adoption at the board’s Dec. 16 meeting at the Anson County Courthouse, and property owners should receive their new assessed-value notices around February 2026.
“We are required by general statute to have a public hearing on the 2026 revaluation,” a county presenter said, and added that the printed schedule is on display in the tax office. The presenter identified staff and consultants attending the meeting, including Bob Pearson and David Balcom of Government Vision Government Solutions.
The presenter outlined the appeal process: informal county-level review, a formal county-level appeal, and a subsequent appeal to the Property Tax Commission in Raleigh if unresolved. He noted that the schedule will remain posted after adoption for 30 days to allow for challenges. Board members asked clarifying questions about when property owners would receive notice and when assessed values would be mailed; the presenter told the board notices should go out around February 2026, at which time owners may file appeals.
No formal adoption occurred at this meeting; the board closed the public hearing and will receive the formal schedule for adoption at the Dec. 16 meeting.
