Explanation
§ Mecklenburg County notified and provided the city the list of Property Tax refund due to clerical or assessment error.
§ Property taxes are refunded when there is a clerical or assessment error and a taxpayer has paid more property taxes than the true assessed value.
- Appeals on assessed values are routed through Mecklenburg County's resident advisory Board of Equalization and Review (BER). The BER hears appeals from taxpayers and reviews current assessments made by the Tax Assessor to make a determination whether taxes should be refunded.
§ The city budgets for appeals annually based on actual appeal amounts from prior fiscal years.
