Trustee Kristen Schreder.
Leslie was elected Assessor-Recorder November 2006 and took office January 2007. Leslie's experience in the office began 14 years ago when she was first hired as an Auditor Appraiser. During lunch, she shared the technical aspects of her departments and the complexities through the economic downturn we are experiencing. She is committed to accurate valuations as this is the starting point for property taxes which then flow through Connie Regnell, Shasta County Auditor-Controller and then to Lori J. Scott, Shasta County Treasurer-Tax Collector-Public Administrator. The Recorder's office is responsible for examination, recording, and archiving of documents. The Assessor's office is responsible for discovering, classifying, and appraising all locally assessable property according to constitutional, statutory, and administrative requirements.
Leslie is a member of Soroptimist International of Redding, the Board of Directors for the CountyRecorders' Association of California, the Timber Advisory Committee for the State Board of Equalization and is active in the California Assessors' Association.
