Consultant: 2025 Cleburne County reappraisal shows roughly 35% increase in assessments
Summary
At the July 10 Quorum Court meeting, consultant Kelly Beatty said the county reappraisal produced about a 35% increase in assessed values since the prior reappraisal three years earlier; notices from the assessor were scheduled for mailing July 15, 2025.
Kelly Beatty of Arkansas Cama Technology told the Cleburne County Quorum Court on July 10 that the county's 2025 reappraisal produced roughly a 35 percent increase in assessed property values compared with the previous reappraisal three years earlier. Beatty said notices from the County Assessor's office would be mailed on July 15, 2025.
The presentation to the court focused on the reappraisal results and the timing for notifying property owners. Beatty reviewed the change in assessments and explained the county's schedule for issuing notice; no new tax rates or levy changes were recorded in the meeting minutes. The court did not take a vote on tax-rate changes at this session.
Why it matters: Changes in assessed value affect how much taxable value is on the books and can influence tax bills if the county’s or other taxing entities’ rates change at or after reappraisal. Court members did not adopt any rate or levy action during the meeting; further steps would depend on subsequent decisions by the assessor, county officials or other taxing authorities.
What was said and next steps: Beatty presented the numerical increase and the mailing date for notices. The minutes record no formal motion or committee referral stemming directly from the reappraisal presentation. Property owners seeking details about their new assessment were directed to the County Assessor’s office; the minutes state the assessor’s office would mail the notices on July 15, 2025.
