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.
