Section 41.71 – Property Tax Protest Hearings on a Weekend or Evening
Property owners sometimes decide not to appeal their property taxes due to the inconvenience of attending a property tax hearing during a workday. Property tax reductions can be significant, both for owners of home and business property. Property owners now have the opportunity to attend either an evening or weekend property tax appeal hearing. The ARB can decide whether to offer hearings during the weekend or evening.
All large appraisal districts, including Harris County Appraisal District, Dallas County Appraisal District, Bexar County Appraisal District, Tarrant County Appraisal District, Travis County Appraisal District, Fort Bend County Appraisal District, Galveston County Appraisal District, Montgomery County Appraisal District, Waller County Appraisal District and Brazoria County Appraisal District offer either evening or weekend property tax protest hearings.
Sec. 41.71. Evening and Weekend Hearings.
An appraisal review board by rule shall provide for hearings on protests in the evening or on a Saturday or Sunday.
