The tentative schedule for 2014 Board of Appeal and Equalization/Open Bool< Meetings is attached. The time
frame in establishing dates for your Local Boards and Open Book meetings will be similar to last year.
1. Establish and distribute tentative schedules by December 13, 2013.
2. Allow 30 days for feedbacl< from local jurisdictions to confirm or to change tentative dates.
Please call Lynne Freezy with any date or time changes at 651-275-7521.
3. Establish and distribute the Final Board of Appeal and Equalization/Open Bool< Meeting schedule
by February 15, 2014. No changes will be made to the schedule after this date.
For those communities that offer their property owners an Open Bool< Meeting format, please recall that
those property owners can attend � of the four Regional Open Bool< Meetings held throughout the County.
This year we will have meetings held in Cottage Grove, Oal<dale, Woodbury, and Stillwater.
If we do not hear from you, we will assume the meeting will be conducted on the date and time listed on the
schedule; a quorum will be in attendance; and a meeting room will be made available.
During the month of February the Assessor's Office will again be developing the annual Assessment Report.
The purpose of this report is to provide general information to the communities in Washington County
regarding the appeals process and the 2014 assessment. The report will be made available on the
Washington County Assessor web page (washin�ton.minnesotaassessors.com/) under "Appraisal Reports"
prior to April 1, 2014.
If you have any question please call Lynne Freezy (651-275-7521) or myself (651-275-7518).
Thank you.
