| County Board of Assessment:
|
In accordance with KRS 133.125, the clerk or a member of the clerk's staff is required to serve as the clerk of the local board of assessment appeals each year. This board is comprised of three property owners in the county who are knowledgeable about local real estate values.
Property owners who believe their property's assessed value is too high can file an appeal of the assessment after meeting with the property valuation administrator. These appeals are filed in the County Clerk's office any time before and no later than one work day following the close of the real property tax roll inspection period. Taxpayers may file an appeal in person or by sending a letter or other written petition to the office. A facsimile of a written petition can be accepted by the clerk's office. The appeal must state the reason for the appeal, identify the property for which the appeal is being filed and the taxpayer's opinion of the property's value. The clerk prepares a summary of all appeals filed for the property valuation administrator within three working days after the close of the tax roll inspection period. For more information on property assessments contact the local PVA office at (606) 663-4184.
