<br /> <br />• Based on the limited view of a narrow portion of the golf course, the County recommends <br />reducing the 15% view adjustment on the land to 5%, reducing the grade of the house from <br />B-10 to C+05 and reducing the condition of the garage from Average to Fair, resulting in a <br />reduction in value from $633,000 to $568,400. <br />• Photos of subject <br />• Listing photos <br />• GIS Map <br />• Email <br />• Current Property Record Card <br />• Proposed Property Record Card <br /> <br /> <br />Motion of the Board Accept County's Proposed Value: $568,400 <br />Made the motion Saru Salvi <br />Seconded the motion Richal Vanhook <br />Voted For All BOER Members ... <br />Voted Against ... ... <br /> <br /> <br />Property Identification: <br /> <br />Property Owner James K. Howard Appellant (if different) <br />Property Address 5314 Chestnut Ridge <br />Church Road <br />Parcel ID or Abstract 9842125375 <br /> <br />Statement of Appeal: Request a value change based on land development limitations. <br /> <br />Current Assessed Value $161,800 County Opinion $112,800 <br />Time of Hearing 1:58 PM Appellant Opinion $74,323 <br />County Representative Kelly Wells Board Decision $112,800 <br /> <br />Evidence submitted by the appellant: <br />• This parcel was previously combined with the 3.84 acre parcel across the road for a total of <br />12.59 acres. In 2012 Environmental Health department determined that the land was unsuitable <br />for a 3-bedroom house. 7.91 acres across Chestnut Ridge Church Road was split off and given <br />to his nephew, he was able to build there but with limited perc site and non-traditional septic. <br />The 3.84 acre parcel (the subject parcel) is valued more at $161,800 than the 7.91 ac parcel at <br />$153,100. "My new assessment should be the same per acre as his. My new assessment should <br />be $19,355/ac x 3.84 = $74,323." <br /> <br /> <br />Evidence submitted by the county representative: <br />• The subject parcel is 3.84 acres of land with an abandoned, unlivable house built in 1909. <br />Documentation was provided from the Orange County Department of Environmental Health <br />from 2012 for the parent PIN of 12.59 acres stating the soil was unsuitable for building a 3 <br />bedroom home with several perc sites tested on both sides of the road. Since the subject parcel <br />was previously part of the parent PIN that was split to the subject PIN and PIN 9842029369, <br />The County recommends increasing the perc adjustment from -25% to -48% to bring the land <br />value more in line with the parcel across the road as they are in different neighborhoods with <br />Docusign Envelope ID: D8C45EA4-1390-4C24-A520-2D19E16B1E17
