Derek Dowsett is the Producer of the County Seat. Now entering his 11th season of the program, he has received what he considers a "Crash Course" in County Government.

 

Many of us are familiar with the assessments that take place on our own properties. You may have even appealed your valuation before. What about large industries that can cross several counties or even state lines? How are their values assessed?

This week on the County Seat Terry Wood looks into how an assessment is made on these industries.

Chad Booth will follow up that conversation with a round table discussion on the problems that arise when one of these Centrally Assessed Properties appeals their valuation and ends up paying less on their taxes. For some counties it can have a huge impact on the budget.

Tune into the County Seat this Sunday at 8:30am on ABC4UTAH.

If you want to learn more about centrally assessed taxes we had a great conversation about “splitting the baby” that wasn’t covered in this week’s show that you can watch here:
