NMSA 1978, § 7-38-26 — Scheduling of protest hearings

Before scheduling a protest hearing, the county assessor shall notify the director and
assure that the assigned property appraisal officer board member will be made
available. The director may assign a property appraisal officer to act as a member of
more than one county valuation protests board. He also may establish and publish
schedules for hearings on protests in the various counties to make the most efficient
use of assigned property appraisal officers and assure the expeditious determination of
protests.
