The Board of Tax Appeals is responsible for adjudicating a variety
of tax-related disputes including excise taxes, public utility
valuations, exemption decisions at the state level, and property
tax appeals stemming from the actions of county boards of equalization.
The Board is the state's primary administrative tax court linking
state and county tax administration with the court system.
The goal of the Board is to provide impartial and economical adjudication
of tax appeals brought by taxpayers, taxing units, and county
assessors.
The Board's objective is to issue a written decision clearly stating
the disposition of an appeal within one year of the date the appeal
is filed with the Board.
