DIRECTOR OF REVENUE AND FINANCE

701-71 17(1) Iowa Administrative Code

Grounds for protest: The only ground for protesting to the local board of review reconvened in special session pursuant to Iowa Code Section 441.49 is that the application of the director's final equalization order results in a value greater than that permitted under Iowa Code Section 441.21.

Appeals by property owners may be filed at the Ames City or County Assessor's office on or after October 16, 2001, up to and including October 25, 2001.

NOTE: Assessed values are equalized by the Department of Revenue and Finance every two years. Local taxing authorities determine the final tax levies and may reduce property tax rates to compensate for any increase in valuation due to equalization.

Mary Mosiman, Story County Auditor
