Iowa Admin. Code r. 701-103.8 - Deputy assessors-regular certification

(1) A person who passes the examination for assessor or deputy assessor shall be granted regular deputy assessor certification by the director and shall be eligible for appointment to a deputy assessor position.

(2) A deputy assessor regular certificate shall expire two years after the most recent date certification is granted, except as provided in subrule 103.8(3).

(3) The deputy assessor regular certificate of a person who is appointed deputy assessor shall remain valid until the person's resignation or removal from the position of deputy assessor, or until the death, resignation, or removal of the assessor who appointed the person as deputy assessor. However, in the event of the death, resignation, or removal of the assessor, the deputy assessor certificate of the chief deputy shall remain valid until a new assessor is appointed. Nothing contained in this rule shall be construed to relieve a deputy assessor holding a restricted certificate of the continuing education requirements for the retention of the deputy assessor's position as provided in Iowa Code section 441.8.

(4) A deputy assessor regular certificate may at any time be renewed if the person possessing such a certificate passes the assessor or deputy assessor examination. A deputy assessor certificate so renewed shall remain valid for a period of two years from the date certification was last granted, except as provided in subrule 103.8(3).

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code section 441.5.
