When the board of supervisors convenes pursuant to the call and notice of the president, it shall proceed to consider the instructions of the Department of Revenue, and if the board be dissatisfied with the decision of the Department of Revenue, the board may, by order, appeal the decision of the department as provided in Section 27-35-113.

In its aforesaid order, the board may fix a day for its meeting for the further performance of its duties required under this section. The witnesses shall appear before the Board of Tax Appeals at the location set by the Board of Tax Appeals for the hearing on the board's appeal at the time established by the Board of Tax Appeals, or they shall lose their right to be heard. The compensation and expenses, if any, shall be paid by the board of supervisors of the county affected. The Board of Tax Appeals shall hear the complaints and objections of any board of supervisors and witnesses and may adopt an order modifying or rescinding the decision of the department as the evidence so requires but not inconsistent with the provisions of Section 27-35-113. Unless appealed, the decision of the department when made shall be final and it shall be the duty of the board of supervisors to immediately take the appropriate action in accordance with the instructions of the department. If the department's decision is appealed, the decision of the Board of Tax Appeals shall be final and it shall be the duty of the board of supervisors to immediately take the appropriate action in accordance with the decision of the Board of Tax Appeals.
