The Cumberland County Board of Equalization, as announced yesterday by County Assessor Kelli Buchannon, began its 2025 session with annual training and oaths administered by County Mayor Allen Foster, welcoming back experienced board members to hear property tax appeals through June 13, 2025.

“Today marks the commencement of the Cumberland County Board of Equalization’s first day, which includes their annual training and oaths, said Buchannon on Facebook. “We were sworn in for 2025 by Allen Foster – Cumberland County Mayor. We are pleased to welcome back our experienced board members from previous years’ past. The board will hear appeals through Friday, June 13, 2025.”

The post also includes a link to The County Board of Equalization Practice Manual, approved by the Tennessee State Board of Equalization in October 2023. This manual serves as a comprehensive guide for board members, officials, and taxpayers, detailing the laws, processes, and duties related to ensuring fair property tax assessments across Tennessee counties.
