Section 40-2-16 Equalization of valuation generally. It shall be the duty of the Department
of Revenue to examine such of the tax records of the several counties as will enable it to
ascertain whether the tax valuation of the various classes of property as made in the respective
counties of the state, is reasonably uniform as between the respective counties and is in
proportion to the fair and reasonable market value of the property assessed. The purpose and
intent of this title is to bring about as far as practicable an equalization throughout the
state of the value of the various classes of property subject to taxation, so that the proportion
of the fair and reasonable market value of the property as fixed for assessment in one county
shall be in due proportion to the fair and reasonable market value of the same classes of
property in other counties, fixed on the same basis for assessment, and that such classes
of property in every county shall bear their proportion of the tax...
