Board of Review To Convene Monday
The Washington county board of review convenes on Monday May 1 at the office of the county assessor. It sits daily through May to review and equalize this year's personal property assessments. Those who believe their personal property assessment is wrong may file a complaint. Real estate values set last year cannot be changed by the board, except that the board may urge the state tax commission to adjust a real estate value if gross injustice or obvious inequality is found. Only the state tax commission can change real estate values except during a real estate year.
