Kenneth Pillion, of Mt. Vernon, gave “double reds” at the most recent blood drive held at First Baptist Church. According to the technician for the Central Ken- tucky Blood Center, certain donors are able to give blood and plasma at the same time, with the plasma going back into the donor and the blood center actually gets two units of blood instead of the usual one.

This is the January 1, 2011 assessment on which state, county and school taxes for 2011 will be due about September 15, 2011. The tax roll is in the office of the property valuation administrator in the county courthouse and may be inspected between the hours of 8:30 and 4:00. Any taxpayer desiring to appeal an assessment on real property made by the PVA must first request a conference with the PVA or a designated deputy. The conference may be held prior to or during the inspection period. Any taxpayer still aggrieved by an assessment on real property, after the conference with the PVA or designated deputy, may appeal to the county board of assessment appeals. The taxpayer can appeal his assessment by filing in person or sending a letter or other written petition stating the reasons for appeal, identifying the property and stating the taxpayer’s opinion of the fair cash value of the property. The appeal must be filed with the county clerk’s office no later than one work day following the conclusion of the inspection period. Any taxpayer failing to appeal to the county board of assessment appeals, or failing to appear before the board, either in person or by designated representative, will not be eligible to appeal directly to the Kentucky Board of Tax Appeals. Appeals of personal property assessments shall not be made to the county board of assessment appeals. Personal property taxpayers shall be served notice under the provisions of KRS 132.450(4) and shall have the protest and appeal rights granted under the provisions of KRS 131.110. The following steps should be taken when a taxpayer does not agree with the assessed value of personal property as determined by the office of prop- erty valuation administrator. (1) He must list under protest (for certification) what he believes to be the fair cash value of his property. (2) He must file a written protest directly with the Department of Revenue, Office of Property Valuation within 30 days from the date of the notice of assessment. (3) This protest must be in accordance with KRS 131.110. (4) The final decision of the Department of Revenue may be appealed to the Kentucky Board of Tax Appeals.
