Annual change-in-value notices from the Saline County Appraiser’s Office are scheduled to be mailed to property owners starting Friday.
The new values should be updated on the county’s Web site, www.saline.org, by Saturday, appraiser Rod Broberg told county commissioners at their weekly meeting Tuesday.
Property owners will have 30 days — or until April 19 — to call the appraiser’s office to schedule an informal appeal hearing, Broberg said.
Broberg said he doesn’t like to disclose how much properties went up or down in value. He said he encourages people to check their individual values and reach their own conclusion about the accuracy.
“What I will give you is the fact that about two-thirds of the residential homes either stayed the same or went down in value,” he told commissioners. “In a lot of cases they weren’t large changes but they did (go) in a downward direction.”
About one-third of residential properties increased in value, he said.
