The property assessor is responsible for the
valuation of locally assessed real property and
commercial/industrial personal property in the County. The Assessor
maintains property ownership records and maps and provides tax rolls
for the County Trustee and municipal collectors for tax billing and
collections.
Most public utility property is valued by the
Office
of State Assessed Properties.
The assessor reports assessments to local and
state boards of equalization. Taxpayers who feel that the assessor
has placed an unfair value on their property may appeal to the
local board of equalization and then to the State Board of
Equalization.

The appraised value on the Assessor's records is
based on the fair market value of the property as of January 1 of the
last reappraisal year, plus the equalized value of any
improvements added between reappraisal years. Reappraisals are conducted
every four years in Maury County and 2006 is the current reappraisal
year.
The assessed value is a percentage of the appraised value used to
calculate property taxes.
|
|
Reappraisal is a periodic update of values
required by State Law.
