Current Assessed Value $379,200 County Opinion $379,200 Time of Hearin 1:27 PM Appellant Opinion $284,400 County Representative Louise Benson- Board Decision $379,200 Lochner Evidence submitted by the appellant: • Home has structural issues which require expensive repairs. • Home has mold mitigation issues due to water leaks which require expensive repairs. • Water leaks occurred as a result of defective Polybutylene water supply pipes. These pipes failed both in the crawlspace and from the water heater located on the second level of the home. The water leaked in the crawlspace for some time which has created mold issues requiring remediation. Evidence submitted by the county representative: • On July 2,2025, a site visit was performed by this appraiser. The purpose of the inspection was to confirm the condition of the home as portrayed in the 3 photos provided per the taxpayer(dated 20231217),along with the photos included in the'Gonzoles Painting Estimate' (undated estimate). During site visit, Taxpayer stated that the work had been completed and there was no longer exposed 2x4's from drywall being removed to repair the leaking water lines. All walls were in finished condition. • On April 28, 2025,the Taxpayer filed an informal appeal concerning the condition of the home,with an estimated Taxpayer value of$295,000. This resulted in a reduction of the Effective Year Built of the home to equal the Actual Year Built of 1989(36-years-old). This effective age would encompass items such as settling,as portrayed by the two appraiser photos attached showing walls with cracks. These are most likely the result of settlement of the home as outlined in the Structural report provided from 2017. • The Taxpayer stated, "Home has mold mitigation issues due to water leaks which require expensive repairs". Evidence has not been provided to date of current existence of mold. • Current Property Record Card of Subject • Photographs of improvements and site • GIS map • Contour map Motion of the Board Accept the Coun 's recommendation of no change in value Made the motion Saru Salvi Seconded the motion Richal Vanhook Voted For Leon Meyers Voted Against
