Fulton County Board of Assessors member Donald Johnson's fight to keep is professional appraiser's license isn't over. The state doesn't have to accept Administrative Law Judge Ana Kennedy's decision to suspend his residential license for six months. The Georgia Real Estate Appraisers Board board, which sought to revoke it, has opted to hold an agency review, after which it could uphold Kennedy, send the case back to her or render a new decision.
The state accused Johnson of incompetence, negligence and falsifying documents in several appraisals for private clients during the height of the housing bubble. Kennedy opted to fine him $2,000, suspend his license for six months and order him to take seven hours of coursework on how to appraise properties.
