Following the meeting, David O’Neill, Fayette County’s property valuation administrator, discussed his process for reassessing home values. State law requires reassessments every four years, and Mentelle Neighborhood is scheduled to be reassessed in 2017 and 2018. He said to watch for an assessment notice in the mail after April 15. If you do not receive a notice in the mail, you can check your property information on Fayettepva.com. Please check it for accuracy. The deadline for correcting or contesting an assessment is the third Monday in May.
State Sen. Reginald Thomas attended the meeting and urged residents to sign up for email updates from his office.

If you would like to donate a coat, gloves or hats for the annual coat drive, it would be greatly appreciated. Coats should be sized for children ages 4-12. Items can be dropped off on the front porch at 721 Aurora Ave. (Ann Olliges).
Thank you so much for your consideration and help with keeping these students warm during the winter months.
