Commissioners seeking applicants
for Board of Equalization
   The Kitsap County Commissioners are seeking applications from residents interested in serving on the county Board of Equalization. The Board considers appeals received on the assessed value of properties.

Members review cases and determine if there should be a change in personal and real property assessments. The Board meets Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays beginning at 9 a.m. and may meet until as late as 4 p.m. The three to seven members serve three-year terms and receive a $75 per day compensation for each hearing day or $55 for a half-day.

Applicants should be familiar with Kitsap County real estate, and able to participate in a three-day training seminar, which is normally held in May.

To complete an application to be considered for appointment, as Central

Kitsap representative or North Kitsap alternate, visit www.kitsapgov.com/volunteer/frmbrdapp.htm. To receive an application by mail, contact Jan Koske at (360) 337-4650.

Applications will be accepted until 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 9.
