Board of Equalization and Review | June 15, 2026

The Union County Board of Equalization and Review convened on June 15, 2026, primarily to hear appeals related to property tax assessments and penalties. Key procurement-related discussions included a waiver request for a late list penalty of $1,532.56 by Quality Irish Group LLC for unlisted business personal property discovered during a county canvassing project. The board reviewed the case, noting the business's lack of prior notice about the tax obligation and the statutory limit of going back five years for assessments. After deliberation, the board denied the waiver request, emphasizing the business owner's responsibility to understand tax rules. Additionally, the board addressed 47 no-show appeals from Ridge Road Partners LLC concerning residential property valuations, ultimately accepting the county's assessed value due to the absence of the appellant. The meeting concluded with approval of staff recommendations and consent agendas related to settled accounts and property assessments. Motions to deny the waiver and accept county valuations were passed unanimously, reflecting adherence to statutory guidelines and procedural fairness.
