Board of Supervisors convenes as Board of Equalization; dozens of protest decisions, exemptions and corrections recorded
Summary
At its July 14 meeting the board convened as the Board of Equalization, approved motor-vehicle exemptions, adopted multiple over/under corrections, and issued parcel-by-parcel rulings (mostly no-change); several building-value adjustments passed and at least one vote recorded a dissent.
The Custer County Board of Supervisors adjourned as the County Board and convened as the Board of Equalization at 10:30 a.m. on July 14 to hear valuation protests, approve exemptions and address over/under corrections, according to minutes recorded by County Clerk Kelly Jacobsen.
The board approved motor-vehicle exemptions for the Callaway Hospital District (vehicles listed from 2013, 2019 and 2022) and moved multiple over/under corrections on assessor recommendation, including a correction for Gage Keefe. Most parcel hearings resulted in no change after roll-call votes recorded as unanimous.
Several parcels had building-value updates: for example, a building value was changed to $140,736 (motion by Blowers, second Longmore) and others were adjusted after owners or representatives appeared. The board recorded at least one dissent: for the property listed as Fox Barry the motion to set the building value at $1,116,256 passed with a recorded nay from Anne Gibbons; most other motions passed unanimously.
The board also handled damaged-property reports and removals (for Marvin & Deb Ritchie the board voted to remove the home), and several parcels were adjusted for over/under errors. The Board of Equalization adjourned and reconvened as the County Board at 12:27 p.m.; the meeting adjourned at 12:28 p.m.
Actions recorded in the minutes include formal motions, seconder names and roll-call tallies; the clerk will furnish formal written notices to protestors within seven days after final decisions as required by statute.
