Hello Madison County residents, family and friends. My name is Marie Risoli Smith. I am seeking election for Madison County Property Appraiser. I am a lifelong resident of Madison and I have worked in the Appraiser’s office for 23 years. I have been married to Travis Smith for 21 years and together we have one son, Blaine. Those who know me know I was raised to be respectful, hard-working, honest and polite. These are the qualities and values I bring to the Property Appraiser’s office daily.
During my time in this office, I have had many duties. I began this job doing field appraisals. Not long after being hired, I then moved to data entry and deed changes. Added to my list of responsibilities are Customer Service, Website administration, Budget preparation, Account payables, purchasing, vendor contracts, sales qualification studies with Department of Revenue as well as Value Adjustment Board presentations. Most recently I have been training in tax roll preparation working directly with the Department of Revenue to ensure and certify fair and just property values.
