Frederick County to undergo general real estate reassessment
Frederick County supervisors discussed funding needs and ordered a general reassessment of real estate to meet rising demands. Supervisor Teets and Baughman led the motion with support from the Stonewall District member, amid calls for state advisory input and an expert tax specialist. The plan may take most of the year to complete as more appraisers are considered and a $25 daily pay cap is debated.
