Fairfield County Board of Revision
Rules of Practice and Procedure
1.
Rules
The following rules are promulgated in accordance with Chapter 5715 and Section 323.66(B) (1) of the Ohio Revised Code.
2.
Organization
(A) The Board of Revision shall herein be referred to as the “Board”. The office of the Board shall be at 210 East Main
Street Room 204, Lancaster, Ohio and shall be open every day from eight a.m. to four p.m., Saturday, Sundays and legal
holidays excepted.
(B) The Board shall consist of the Auditor, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of County Commissioners selected by the
Board of County Commissioners or their statutorily appointed designee.
(C) The Board shall be in continuous session and open for the transaction of business during the business hours herein
provided. All sessions shall be open to the public and sessions of the Board shall stand and be adjourned without further
notice thereof on its records.
(D) All proceedings and documents concerning your hearing are public record and may be copied, electronically transferred
or displayed on the Auditor’s website.
(E) Each member’s vote shall be recorded on the record as cast.
Service – School Board Attorneys
3.
This section pertains to school board attorneys when they file counter-complaints. If your school district attorneys do not file
counter-complaints, you may disregard this rule.
(A) All pleadings, briefs, papers and other documents filed by a complainant with the Board, subsequent to the filing of the
complaint, shall be served upon all parties.
(B) Said pleadings, briefs, papers and other documents shall contain a certificate of service indicating that the required
service has been made, the manner in which service was made, and the names and addresses of the parties or attorneys
upon whom service was made.
(C) Service upon an attorney or party shall be made by delivering or mailing a copy to the attorney’s or the party’s last
known address. Service by mail is complete upon mailing.
4.
Copies
Any document that is filed with the Board shall be filed as one (1) copy on letter size (8½ “x 11”) paper in a manner which is
not permanently bound (i.e. NO staples or binders). Materials should be paper-clipped, rubber banded or enveloped.
5.
Appearance And Practice Before The Board
(A) Following the decision of the Board of Tax Appeals, attorneys at law and owners of record of affected properties are
permitted to file complaints for a reduction in value.
According to the Ohio Supreme Court, if the property is in a name other than your individual name, in many cases the
complaint should be filed by an attorney.
The Board of Revision is following the directive of the Ohio Supreme Court in dismissing complaints filed by non-
attorneys on behalf of a family member (other than a spouse) and persons holding powers of attorney.
Recent Supreme Court and Board of Tax Appeals cases may permit the Board of Revision to hear cases filed by spouses,
trustees, corporate officers and members of an LLC.
Questions about your specific situation must be directed to your attorney.
(B) Persons authorized to practice law in jurisdictions other than Ohio may be permitted, upon presenting proper
documentation to the Board, to practice before the Board in a particular proceeding.
(C) Attorneys representing parties will not be permitted to testify or appear in any capacity other than as counsel.
6.
Complaints-Filings
(A) The complaint shall be filed with the county auditor, once the tax duplicate has been filed with the County Treasurer
st
(around January 1
of each year), and on or before the thirty-first day of March of the ensuing tax year or the date of
closing of the collection for the first half of real property taxes for the current tax year, whichever is later.
Complaints
st
filed after the March 31 deadline will be dismissed by the Board. A United States postmark dated March 31
is proof of
timely filing. The complaint (DTE Form 1) must be filled out in its entirety; failure to do so may result in a dismissal.
