Item #11E Initial Certification of the VAB 07/30/2019 Item 11E
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to execute the Initial Certification of the Value Adjustment
Board (DR-488p) for Real Property and Tangible Personal Property
OBJECTIVE: To execute and file the Initial Certification of the Value Adjustment Board for
Real Property and Tangible Personal Property for the 2019 Tax Roll Year.
CONSIDERATIONS: Chapter 197.323 and Chapter 193.122(1), Florida Statutes identifies the
requirements necessary to extend the tax roll beyond November 1 of said tax year. The Value
Adjustment Board hearings will not conclude prior to November 1, thus an extension of the Tax
Roll is needed. Each year in October, the Collier County Tax Collector requests that the Board of
County Commissioners extend the tax roll past November 1. The Value Adjustment Board must
certify the initial tax roll and again after all hearings required by Florida Statute 194.032 have been
held. These certificates shall be attached to each roll as required by the Department of Revenue.
RECOMMENDATION: To authorize the VAB Chairman to execute the Department of Revenue
Form DR-488p for both Real Property and Tangible Personal Property as the Initial Certification
of the Value Adjustment Board for the 2019 Tax Roll Year.
