Negotiations continue over CREP valuations

    Chase County Commissioners are continuing to field concerns over the value of Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program land in the county.
    Duane Dinnel and John Maddux attended the Jan. 8 and 22 Chase County Commissioners’ and Board of Equalization meetings to ask commissioners Jacci Brown, Dennis Kunnemann and Chuck Vette to consider negotiating the recent Tax Equalization and Review Commission CREP ruling for 2017 and 2018 CREP values.
    Dinnel has butted heads with Chase County Assessor Dotty Bartels and members of the BOE since 2015 over CREP valuations leading to several TERC cases.
    Brown and Kunnemann have taken seats on the board since BOE protests were heard in July 2018, prompting Dinnel and Maddux to ask for a second look.
