Arkansas § 14-218-122 - Annual revision of assessments.

§ 14-218-122. Annual revision of assessments.

The board of assessors of a consolidated district shall annually revise and readjust the assessment of property made by them for the district. The annual readjustment shall be made, and the list showing it filed with the city clerk at least ninety (90) days before the date fixed by the city council of the city for the collection of the annual installments of the assessments of the district. In making the annual revision and readjustment, the board of assessors shall have no power to increase the assessment or make any new assessment against any tract of land except to cover the increased value by reason of improvements actually placed on the land since the making of the first assessment or the last annual readjustment thereof, or to cover the increased or new benefits derived by any property by reason of new improvements, extensions, repairs, or replacements to the consolidated system made, or to be made, in accordance with additional plans filed as provided in § 14-218-108(b). The aggregate amount of the assessed benefits of all property in such districts, as shown by the assessment originally made, shall not be diminished by any readjustment or revision. The failure of the assessors of the districts to revise and readjust annually the assessment of the districts shall not invalidate or affect in any way the original assessment. At the time of making the annual readjustment and revision, the board of assessors may correct and amend the description of any property improperly described in the original assessment, or any previous revision thereof.
