Summary
Durham County’s Tax Administrator presented the proposed 2025 General Reappraisal Schedule of Values and the board scheduled a public hearing on Oct. 28, 2024. Staff said the reappraisal is expected to generate substantial public questions due to recent price changes; the board targeted Jan. 1, 2029 for the next reappraisal cycle.
Durham County officials voted on Oct. 14 to receive the proposed 2025 General Reappraisal Schedule of Values and to hold a public hearing on Oct. 28, 2024, the board announced.
Keyar Doyle, Durham County Tax Administrator, presented the proposed schedules, standards and rules and told commissioners the documents would be available for public inspection in the Tax Administration office, the Clerk to the Board’s Office, and online under the Tax Administration website. Doyle told the board staff expects a “large number of questions” from property owners because of price changes since the last reappraisal. Assistant County Manager Dwane Brinson added that the board had formally adopted reappraisals on a four-year cycle and that the target date for the next reappraisal after 2025 is Jan. 1, 2029.
Commissioner Heidi Carter moved, and Commissioner Brenda Howerton seconded, a motion to receive the proposed schedules, standards and rules from the Tax Administrator and to schedule a public hearing on Oct. 28, 2024 concerning adoption; the motion carried unanimously among members present. Staff was directed to publish the required public-advertisement in the Durham Herald-Sun. The board also asked staff to ensure public notice and easy online access to the proposed documents ahead of the hearing.
The public hearing will allow residents to review and comment on the proposed schedule of values and related rules before the board considers final adoption. The tax office and the clerk to the board will maintain copies for public inspection as part of the advertised hearing process.
