ARCHIVE of Previous Meetings
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

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

will be allotted the same number of minutes to speak to the Board. The
Board may limit the total testimony to 30
minutes.
