Summit County Fiscal Officer Kristen M. Scalise CPA, CFE reminds taxpayers the deadline to file a complaint form (DTE-1) against the valuation of real property is Monday, April 1, 2013.
Taxpayers who do not agree with the valuation of their property have the opportunity to file a complaint with the Board of Revision for review of property values. When a complaint is filed, the Board of Revision will schedule a hearing, review testimony and issue a decision on whether a correction should be made to the valuation. The board does not hear complaints regarding real estate taxes.
Complaint forms (DTE 1) are required to be signed, dated and notarized. Submissions must be postmarked on or before April 1, 2013. Complaint forms can be hand delivered or mailed to the Summit County Fiscal Office, 175 S. Main Street, Room 302, Akron, Ohio 44308 or our satellite office at Summit County Board of Revision, 2525 State Rd., Room 153, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio 44223.
