Board of Review
The role of the Board of Review (BOR) is to receive and hear taxpayer appeals of their property assessment, property classification and process applications for hardship exemptions. The BOR is composed of citizens of our community.
There are three BOR members in Putnam Township. Members are appointed by the Board of Trustees and serve two-year terms. The BOR meets three times per year, in March, July, and December. In March, the BOR hears appeals regarding property taxes. In July and December, any clerical errors and mutual mistakes of fact are corrected. Poverty and Veterans Exemptions can be heard at any of the three BOR meetings.
If you wish to participate in Township government by serving on the Board of Review, please send a resume to supervisor@putnamtwp.us with a message indicating your interest in serving. When we have an opening to fill, you will be contacted for more information and a possible interview by the Board of Trustees.
If you believe your home’s assessed value isn’t correct, start by contacting Putnam Township’s Assessor, Amy Pashby at assessor@putnamtwp.us. She has knowledge and tools at her disposal to answer your questions, or direct inquiries as needed.
