(2) When a parcel has been assessed and thereafter part or parts are transferred to a different ownership, set off and apportion to each its just and equitable portion of the assessment;
(3) Obey all rules and regulations made under Chapter 77 and the instructions and orders sent out by the Tax Commissioner and the Tax Equalization and Review Commission;
(4) Examine the records in the office of the register of deeds and county clerk for the purpose of ascertaining whether the property described in producing mineral leases, contracts, and bills of sale, have been fully and correctly listed and add to the assessment roll any property which has been omitted;
(5) Prepare the assessment roll as defined in section 77-129 and described in section 77-1303; and
(6) Beginning January 1, 2014, in any county with a population of at least one hundred fifty thousand inhabitants according to the most recent federal decennial census, provide, between January 15 and March 1 of each year, the opportunity to real property owners to meet in person with the county assessor or the county assessor's designated representative. If the real property owner does not notify the county assessor or the county assessor's designated representative by February 1 of the real property owner's intent to meet in person, the real property owner waives the opportunity to meet in person with the county assessor or the county assessor's designated representative. During such meetings, the county assessor or the county assessor's designated representative shall provide a basis for the property valuation contained in the notice of preliminary valuation sent pursuant to section 77-1301 and accept any information the property owner provides relevant to the property value.
