For a complaint about an assessment to be heard by a Local Assessment Review Board:
- complainant (property owner) must provide full disclosure at least 21 days before the scheduled hearing date
- respondent (Town of Okotoks) must provide full disclosure at least 7 days before the scheduled hearing date
- complainant must provide rebuttal at least 3 days before the scheduled hearing date
For a complaint about an assessment to be heard by a Composite Assessment Review Board:
- complainant (property owner) must provide full disclosure at least 42 days before the scheduled hearing date
- respondent (Town of Okotoks) must provide full disclosure at least 14 days before the scheduled hearing date
- complainant must provide rebuttal at least 7 days before the scheduled hearing date
For a complaint about any matter other than an assessment, the parties must provide full disclosure at least 7 days before the scheduled hearing date. An example of a non-assessment matter would be the name or mailing address of an assessed person or taxpayer being incorrect.
