2008 Real Estate Assessments
1.
If your concern is not resolved to your satisfaction by the assessor, the
next step is to appeal to the Board
of Equalization. The
Board consists of New Kent Citizens from each district appointed by the Circuit
Court Judge. The filing dates will
be set at a later time and will be advertised in the Chronicle,
The New Kent Government Cable TV Channel 48, www.newkent.net,
and www.co.new-kent.va.us
2.
One important thing you can do is to compare what you owed last year with
what you would owe under the reassessment. (New
Kent
County
has not yet adopted its
budget or tax rates for 2008. However,
we expect an increase from the equalized rate of 67 cents per $100.)
Note: the Equalized rate has been
found to be 67 cents per hundred, not the 67.75 indicated in your assessment
notice.
For
2007: Multiply 93 cents times the old assessment and divide the result by 100.
(old assessment)(.93) / 100
This gives you the amount of
taxes you paid in 2007.
For
2008: Multiply 67 cents times the new assessment and divide the result by
100. (new
assessment)(.67) / 100 This
gives you the amount of taxes for 2008 before any increase.
The
example included with the reassessment notice shows $200,000 times .93 divided
by 100 for $1860
in taxes in 2007, and $290,000 times .67 divided by 100 for $1943
in taxes in 2008 before any increase.
