Deputy Administrator – Tax Roll Management
Hillsborough County Property Appraiser
Category: Government & Public Service
Opal Hudson began her appraisal career almost twenty-one years ago, as a fee appraiser. During her tenure she has held multiple positions including the lead of the sales department. In this role she was tasked with improving data files used to assess properties. This effort became a White Paper for the International Association of Assessing Officers and still governs the sale process in her office today.
In her new role as deputy administrator over tax roll management, she expands upon those principles with a new team and works to revolutionize the assessment process via increased use of geospatial technology, for further accuracy in producing a fair and equitable tax roll.
