The Collin Central Appraisal District Board of Directors is now accepting applications for appointment to the Collin County Appraisal Review Board (ARB) for a 1- or 2-year term, to begin on Jan. 1, 2025, and end Dec. 31, 2025/2026. The ARB is a board of citizens that determines taxpayer protests of property appraisals made by the Collin Central Appraisal District (CAD).

ARB service requires a full-time commitment during the spring and summer months. In 2024, the Collin County ARB had over 45,000 hearings. Additionally, although members may not be scheduled every day, they must be available to serve every day if needed, including some Saturdays in May, June, and July. Hearings are usually held one week per month throughout the year.  Members are compensated per-diem for meetings and are reimbursed for expenses incurred in the performance of their duties. ARB members are also required to attend training sessions. 

Applications must be submitted to the Collin CAD Board of Directors through the CAD Taxpayer Liaison Officer and must be received by September 30, 2024, to be considered.

An applicant must be a resident of Collin County and must have resided in the county for at least the past two years.
