GRAVETTE — State Sen. Kim Hendren would like to hear from people who have experience with property-tax-appraisal systems in other states, as well as anybody else who has an idea about how the Arkansas version of a property-tax-appraisal system can be improved.

With state lawmakers preparing to reform the state property-tax-appraisal system, now is the time to help him figure out what has worked and what hasn’t worked, and what could work better in the state of Arkansas.

Many people have come to the state from other states and have practical experience with systems that work, experience he’d like to take advantage of.

Residents may reach him via his cell phone at (479 ) 790-5600, or via hendrenk @ arkleg. state. ar. us, his state legislative e-mail address, Hendren said. He will relay good suggestions to his legislative colleagues, he said.
