County unveils online tax estimator as appeals near 4,000 filings
Summary
County staff demonstrated a new online tax estimator to help taxpayers preview assessment impacts; staff reported 3,708 reassessment appeals to date, with 58% responded to in writing and 11% closed so far.
County staff demonstrated a new online tax estimator and provided an update on the reassessment appeals season. The presenter walked through entering a PIN and taxable value and noted the estimator shows district, owner and estimated taxes for sample parcels. "It says estimated taxes are $1.28 66," the presenter demonstrated for a sample mobile-home case during the demo.
On appeals, staff reported, "As of this afternoon, we have 3,708 appeals," noting that 58% of those have been responded to in writing and 11% are already closed. Staff said processing can take up to 90 days after response when taxpayers and staff collaborate and that appeals may rise before the window closes; committee members were shown the estimator ahead of an October mailing.
