Board of Equalization Vacancy-Commissioner District #3
Board of Equalization Vacancy-At Large #1
Board Membership Application 



Property Owners may appeal a decision made by the County Assessor regarding real or personal property to the Board of Equalization. The Taxpayer Petition to the Okanogan County Board of Equalization for Review of Real Property Valuation Determination is located here. 

The Board of Equalization (BOE) meets in open session annually beginning on the 15th day of July or within fourteen days of the County Assessor's certification of the county assessment rolls, whichever is later. The BOE must fairly and impartially examine and compare the returns of the assessment of the county and proceed to equalize the same, so that each tract, or lot of real property and each article or class of personal property is entered on the assessment list at its true and fair value, according to the measure of value used by the county assessor in such assessment year, which is presumed to be correct under RCW 84.40.030. Members shall not be a holder of any elective office nor be an employee of any elected official.

The BOE hears citizen appeals/petitions for property values placed upon their property by the County Assessor.  The members of this Board are appointed by the Okanogan County Board of County Commissioners. 

Currently there is two vacancies for the Board for District #3, and At-Large #1.  Please contact either Lanie Johns or Cameron Burnette at 509-422-7100 for more information.
