The original documents filed by the taxpayer must be maintained by the county assessors. Upon the expiration of the period for reassessment, provided in Section 2846 of this title, all copies of taxpayer documents and the related work papers of the appraisers must be destroyed or returned to the county assessors by February 1 of the following year. In addition, all photocopies of taxpayer documentation and appraiser work papers must be returned to the county assessor within ten (10) calendar days of the termination of the contract with the appraisers to provide the services described in this section.
