Agenda* / Notice of Assessment Appeals Board

Under the California Constitution and applicable statutes, hearings of the Assessment Appeals Board are judicial

proceedings. The decisions of Assessment Appeals Boards must be based exclusively on properly admitted

evidence. Assessment Appeals Boards may not base any factual determinations necessary for their decisions on

anything other than the aforementioned evidence. Information presented through public comment, unless property

admitted into evidence in compliance with the Revenue and Taxation code and the Property Tax Rules of the State

Board of Equalization, is not evidence upon which Assessment Appeals Boards may base findings.

The Assessment Appeals Board Agenda packet and documents are available for review in Room 405 at City Hall.

Each item on the Agenda may include the following documents: (1) An Application for Changed Assessment (2)

Comparable Sale Information (3) Department or Agency Correspondence (4) Public Correspondence.

Public comment will be taken for items on the agenda, as well as items not on the agenda but under the jurisdiction

of the Board. Each member of the public will be allotted the same number of minutes to speak to the Board. The

Board may limit the total testimony to 30 minutes.
