Board of Review

About the Membership

The Board is comprised of three members, appointed by the County Board chairman. The members represent the two highest polling political parties in the last general election - two members from the majority, and one from the next highest polling party.

Board of Review members must pass a state examination and demonstrate knowledge of real estate and tax law. The board's highest goal is a fair and equitable assessment.

Current Members

The current Board of Review consists of the following members:

  • Gene Yeast, Chairman (R)
  • Joseph Stephens, Member (D)
  • Gina Medernach, Member (R)

Assessment Appeals

Taxpayers can appeal their assessment to the board during the 30 days following the notice of assessment. The board can change any value in the County. A hearing may be held, in an informal setting, in the Supervisor of Assessments conference room. The board also has equalization authority. Please refer to the rules of the Board of Review (PDF) and Guidelines for Assessment Complaints (PDF) for more details.
