Jessica Corbitt, a spokesperson for the county, said the errors represent a tenth of a percent of all residential property owners. The errors had to do with sales data and neighborhood designations.
All property owners have until July 6 to appeal their values. The county has so far received 80 appeals.
Last year, residents complained about property values that rose higher than they expected. This year, values continued to increase.
