Dear Chairman Foley and Chief Appraiser Houllis:
Rains County Appraisal District (Rains CAD) has completed all the recommendations made in the original Appraisal Standards Review released in August 2005, including those that remained outstanding with the release of the one-year follow-up report in April 2007. Rains CAD is, therefore, in compliance with Property Tax Code Section 5.102.
It is important to keep appraisal practices up-to-date and consistent with requirements of Texas law and generally accepted appraisal standards. This helps achieve local market value and ensures all property owners in the Rains CAD receive uniform and equitable treatment.
We congratulate Rains CAD’s board and staff for their work.
Sincerely,
Susan Combs
