(Matt Drzik/Beaver County Radio)

Beaver County’s ongoing process in dealing with the process of property reassessment will enter its next chapter soon, as daily mailers will be sent to homeowners next week. The announcement was made by Garen Fedeles, the Beaver County Solicitor, at the Wednesday work session.

Fedeles said that the forms that will be sent out from Tyler Technologies will inquire about the basic details regarding the properties, such as overall size, number of rooms and other information.

“There is no real time frame,” Fedeles said in regards to a deadline to submit the forms, “[but] obviously we’d want it back sooner rather than later. What would happen is that a representative from Tyler would most likely reach out to that individual about a discrepancy.”
