2026 PLAN OF ASSESSMENT FOR HALL COUNTY <br /> ASSESSMENT YEARS 2027, 2028, AND 2029 <br /> REAL PROPERTY <br /> There are several areas that I do not foresee changing on an annual basis. These include <br /> conducting an analysis of the unimproved agricultural land market, reviewing statistical <br /> analysis of property types for problem areas, sending questionnaires to buyers and sellers <br /> of recently sold properties, compiling sales books based on current sales, monitoring <br /> agricultural land sales to determine the need for additional market areas, and conducting <br /> pickup work. <br /> 2027 <br /> During calendar year 2027, the Assessor's Office plans to accomplish the following: <br /> • Residential: <br /> 1. We continually review valuations and assessment levels for problem areas and <br /> any necessary adjustments. Adjustments may be made by reviewing the <br /> subdivision, either in person or with Eagleview. <br /> 2. We will keep working on the 6-year review of properties. The field appraisal <br /> staff will continue reviewing by valuation group for 2027. They will focus on <br /> desk & physically reviewing Rural homes, High Density Rural Subs, and <br /> Grand Island 2. A detailed list can be provided upon request. <br /> 3. We will continue to send out questionnaires to the owner of record before <br /> doing a subdivision in the 6-year review cycle. This gives us information <br /> about the home and notifies them when we are in the neighborhood. We have <br /> had a wonderful response to this. <br /> 4. There will be a new Eagleview flight in February 2027. We will use Change <br /> Finder to locate and list any properties that have changed. <br /> 5. I also have been working on new depreciation tables for Hall County. I will <br /> conduct a study of arm's-length transactions and create a new depreciation <br /> table based on sales and condition. I have noticed an upward trend in older <br /> homes selling tremendously higher than the assessed value. <br /> • Agricultural Land: <br /> 1. Every year, we update ag land use and soil types (with our GIS department). <br /> The NRCS office sends us land updates with an overlay that the GIS <br /> department uses to notify us of any land use changes. <br /> 2. We will also work with the GIS department to double-check acres, soil type, <br /> and land use in South Loup, Mayfield, Prairie Creek, and Lake Townships. <br />
