ORANGE COUNTY – County commissioners will discuss when to schedule the next property tax revaluation when the board meets Tuesday.

The board voted last year to delay a scheduled revaluation, based on the advice of the Tax Administrator. He said the slump in home sales meant there was not enough data to get an accurate estimate of property values.

The revaluation was pushed back to 2015, but commissioners could decide to wait another two years to allow staff to gather more data.

The board will also review plan to renovate the Whitted Building into a public meeting space to be shared by Hillsborough, the board of commissioners and the Orange County school board. If approved, the renovations would cost about $1.5 million.

The board of commissioners meets at 7:00 p.m. at the Department of Social Services in Hillsborough.
