Alex Gary vs. Rockford Township Assessor

Add comment December 17th, 2007

OK that’s overstating it, but I received notice that my hearing challenging my home assessment is Jan. 7.

If you’ve never been through the process — and I haven’t — you receive a pretty purple pamphlet giving you rules and deadlines. I have to turn in my new evidence that Rockford Township over-assessed our house five business days before the hearing. I also can ask for the township’s evidence that the house was assessed correctly.

I like to argue but apparently won’t have much time for it. Each hearing is scheduled for just 15 minutes.
