WHAT OTHER THINGS SHOULD I KEEP IN MIND?

1. Deadlines and schedules are important. If you miss a deadline or fail to appear as scheduled at a hearing proceeding, you may lose your rights to pursue your appeal.

2. This appeal may not affect next year's value. If you get an adjustment this year, you will get a refund for this year. However, market factors may affect your property value for future years. Do not rely on the decision in this appeal to carry forward beyond the current year. If you receive another tax valuation that you disagree with, you must appeal that valuation separately.

3. For questions about the County Board of Equalization, phone (435) 893-0401.

4. For questions about an Appeal with the Utah State Tax Commission, contact the Tax Commission Appeals Unit at (801) 297-2280 or (801) 297-2281.
