Orange County Seeks Applicants for
Board of Equalization and Review

ORANGE COUNTY, NC (December 3, 2020) – One major way citizens can have a positive impact on the future of Orange County is to volunteer to serve on the various County advisory boards and commissions.

The Orange County Board of Commissioners is currently recruiting for the Orange County Board of Equalization and Review.  The board hears appeals from citizens concerning various property tax issues, including valuation and exemption appeals.  The Board of Equalization and Review is charged with ensuring that all taxable property is appraised and assessed according to the standards required by the North Carolina General Statutes.

The Orange County Board of Equalization and Review will meet up to three days per week, for approximately three to four hours per meeting, for up to three consecutive months (April – June).  Additional meetings may occur as needed during the year.  Members will be paid for all meetings attended.

Interested Orange County residents with knowledge of real estate are encouraged to apply.  Other interested citizens will also be given consideration.
 
If interested, apply at www.orangecountync.gov/boards .

Orange County strives for diversity on volunteer advisory boards.  Minorities are encouraged to apply.  Applicants must reside in Orange County.  Volunteers appointed by the Board of County Commissioners have an opportunity to influence the way of life in Orange County.
