"When property assessment notices are
distributed, many residents often do not understand what the assessment
notice means or how they should evaluate their property tax valuation. We
want to answer questions and provide property owners an opportunity to
learn about how their property assessment valuation is determined, their
role in the tax process and how to evaluate the appropriateness of a
property's assessed value," explained Chief County Assessment
Officer Marty Paulson.
