About the Assessor
Assessors are appointed to their position by a Conference
Board consisting of the members of the Board of Supervisors,
the Mayors of all cities, and a member of each school
district within the jurisdiction.
Assessors are required by law to pass a state examination
and complete a continuing education program consisting
of 150 hours of formal classroom instruction with
90 hours tested and a passing grade of 70% attained.
The latter requirement must be met in order for the
Assessor to be reappointed to the position every six
years.
The Conference Board approves the Assessor's budget
and after a public hearing acts on adoption of the
same. The Assessor is limited, by statute, depending
upon the value of the jurisdiction, to a levy limitation
for the budget.
