§ 8776 Drainage District Assessor Qualifications

Key Takeaways

  • •The people who decide how much land is worth in a drainage area can't own any land there.
  • •They must be fair and not have any personal interest in the land they are assessing.
  • •This rule helps make sure the decisions are honest and not influenced by personal gain.

Example

Imagine a group of people is deciding how much a piece of land is worth for a new drainage project.

If one of them owns land in that area, they can't be part of the group because they might try to make decisions that help themselves instead of being fair.
