Every year the Board of Tax Assessors mails out notices to each property owner. Upon receipt of this notice, the property owner desiring to appeal must do so within 45 days of the date of the notice. The appeal is filed with the Board of Tax Assessors which reviews the appeal filed and informs the taxpayer of its decision. If the Board of Tax Assessors makes no changes, the appeal is automatically forwarded to the County Board of Equalization. The Board of Equalization will schedule a hearing and render a decision at the conclusion of its hearing. If the taxpayer is still dissatisfied with the decision, an appeal to Superior Court may be made.
