Beaufort County property owners can receive direct assistance with property assessments and appeals through mid-December via walk-in sessions at four local library branches, WTOC reported.
Staff from the Beaufort County Assessor’s Office will be on-site to explain how property values are determined and to answer specific questions regarding exemptions. These sessions also provide a venue for residents to seek guidance on the appeals process and other general property-related inquiries.
The initiative aims to provide clarity to homeowners who may be confused by their valuation notices. According to reporting from podimo.com, the sessions allow residents to address these concerns without the need for a pre-arranged appointment.
The upcoming sessions are scheduled to take place between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. at various branches throughout the county. Residents can visit the following locations on the dates listed below:
| Library Branch | Address | Available Dates |
|---|---|---|
| Hilton Head Branch Library | 11 Beach City Road | Tuesday, Nov. 10 Monday, Dec. 7 |
| St. Helena Branch Library | 6355 Jonathan Francis Sr. Road | Thursday, Nov. 12 Thursday, Nov. 19 Tuesday, Dec. 15 |
| Bluffton Branch Library | 120 Palmetto Way | Tuesday, Nov. 17 Thursday, Dec. 3 Thursday, Dec. 10 |
| Lobeco Branch Library | 1862 Trask Parkway | Monday, Nov. 30 Monday, Dec. 14 |
The next scheduled session begins on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at the Hilton Head Branch Library. Following that, the Assessor’s Office will rotate through the St. Helena, Bluffton, and Lobeco branches to ensure coverage across the county through the end of the year.
These walk-in events are designed to be accessible to everyone. No appointment is required for any of the scheduled dates, allowing property owners to drop in during the designated 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. window.
The timing of these sessions coincides with the period when many property owners are reviewing their assessments for the upcoming tax cycle. By bringing Assessor’s Office staff directly into community hubs like libraries, the county provides a localized way for residents to resolve disputes or seek exemptions that could impact their tax liabilities.
