I hope this message finds you and your family well. According to Ohio Revised Code, the Summit County Fiscal Officer must reappraise the value of all real property in the County every 6 years. 2020 was the year for Summit County's reappraisal. While our County Fiscal Officer attempted to delay this process due to the pandemic, the delay was not allowed. As such, many of you received a tax bill that was substantially higher than expected; as property values rise, property taxes may also increase.
