September Tax Revaluation Task Force

The Burke County Tax Revaluation Task Force held a meeting on September 23, 2026, to review and discuss the draft schedule of values for the upcoming property tax reappraisal cycle. The task force examined the valuation methodology used to determine property values across the county, emphasizing that the schedule of values is a methodology document rather than individual property assessments or tax rates. The presentation covered the reappraisal process, sales ratio studies, land and property value trends, and the appeal process for property owners. The task force also discussed the timeline for public notice, appeals, and final adoption by the Board of Commissioners. No specific contract awards or procurement decisions were made, but the meeting focused on preparing for the revaluation implementation and ensuring transparency and public understanding of the process.
