Tax Commission Looks at Reynolds County

(Reynolds County, MO) Missouri State Tax Commissioners are asking Reynolds County Assessor, Rick Parker, to respond to the organization's request to have a discussion with him on his reported refusal to raise residential assessments for 2023. In a letter to Parker from tax commission members, dated May 19th, commissioners say the 2021 Reynolds Residential Sales Study shows residential values in the county are below market value. The letter goes on to say if an agreement is not reached concerning the Residential Memorandum of Understanding, between the commission and the county, the county's state cost share monies could be in jeopardy. It also states if an agreement cannot be reached by June 15th the commission may withhold the Reynolds County quarterly reimbursement monies until progress can be made towards fair market value to residential assessments.
