TWO-WEEK EXTENSION
Although today was the deadline for the completion of the reassessment of commercial and industrial property, Marion County Assessor Greg Bowes says the project will take about two more weeks. Bowes says Manatron, the company doing the assessment, need a couple more weeks to guarantee accuracy in it’s work. Bowes says they got approval from the department of Local Government and Finance for the extension. He also says they should still be able to make their assessment deadline, despite the two-week delay, because better assessment numbers will likely turn into less review time, and the assessments should be done by the Spring.
