Board of Review

The Board of Review hears Real Property Tax appeals as defined in the Kauai County Code, Section. 5A-12.3.

There are the five grounds for appeals:

  1. Assessment of the property exceeds by more than fifteen percent (15%) the assessment of market value.
  2. Lack of uniformity or inequality, brought about by illegality of the methods used or error in the application of the methods to the property involved.
  3. Denial of an exemption or dedication to which the owner is entitled and for which all requirements have been met.
  4. The assessment methods are unconstitutional or in violation of state laws or county ordinances.
  5. The tax rate classification is incorrect according to Section. 5A-6.4 or the Real Property Tax Classification Rules.

The Board consists of five at-large members appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the County Council to staggered three year terms.

The Board of Review was established in 1987 by the Kauai County Code.  For more information on Board of Review, please refer to the Kauai County Code, Section. 5A-12.7
