Countywide : County May Seek Funds for Assessor
- Share via
At a special meeting today, the Board of Supervisors will discuss whether the county should seek state funds to help improve service at the assessor’s office.
Chief Executive Officer Jan Mittermeier has recommended that the county participate in the program, under which the state provides loans that allow counties to deal more efficiently with tax collections and assessment appeals. If a county reaches its “efficiency goal,” it does not have to pay back the loan.
Officials said the state funding could help Orange County reduce a huge backlog of property tax assessment appeals. Today is the deadline to apply for the program.
