The Director of Equalization is responsible to oversee the location and identification of all property in county, value all taxable property according to current law and to provide professional appraisal & assessment direction to the county commissioners.

Please click here to review the SD Department of Revenue and Regulation’s "Summary of Assessment Process".

The Equalization Office makes a great effort to do interior reviews of all property in the county on a rotating schedule. We are now reviewing the cities in Spink County. SDCL 10-3-23 gives the Equalization office the “…power to enter and inspect all property for the purpose of determining value…” This ensures that the property information we have is correct and the assessment will be correct. Information on Appealing assessment can be found at "Appeal Process Guide for the Property Owner".

If the project is an addition or new building that is less than the dollar value stated, the setbacks still need to be met. If you are not sure of the setbacks, please check with the Equalization Office for the required setbacks in your area. If you do not meet the setbacks, you will need to apply for a Variance which can also be downloaded.
