​Change notices were sent out to all property owners whose value had changed since April 1, 2023. There were 18 changes in value, There were 2 new properties as a result of a sale with subdivision. Property owners were advised that hearing dates established were Thursday, 5/16/2024, from 4pm to 7pm and Saturday, 5/18/2024, from 9am to 12pm.
The following appointments were made:
Edward Sanborn – Property ID 75-0316-000 316 Cahill Road
Vaughn Micciche – Property ID 06-1105-000 1105 Lower Michigan Road
Mountain Fever LLC – Property ID 61-0003-000 4 Leigh Kelly Drive
Grievance Hearings:
Mr. Sanborn stated that no improvements had been made on this property since 2022 and could not understand the increase in value.
Mr. Micciche and Ms Alston were concerned that the listers had not noticed that one of the barns had decreased in size and wanted to ensure that an adjustment was made. He also wanted to understand more about the valuation of the new construction in one of his outbuildings. At the end of the hearing, two of the three listers accompanied Mr. Micciche and Ms. Alston to their property to look more closely at the barns/outbuildings.
The owners of 61-0003-000, 4 Leigh Kelly Drive, cancelled their appointment via email on the morning of 5/16. They advised that they would not grieve the value of their property this year.
All stated grievance hours were staffed. No additional property owners appeared.
Grievance Deliberations – 5/18/2024:
  1. Mr. Sanborn - While examining the property information for 316 Cahill Road, it was observed that the square footage assessed in 2022 did not reflect the current actual square footage observed in 2024. It was also observed that the percent complete was overstated. The percent complete was reduced to 80%. The current value of the property is $245,600.   
  2. Mr. Micciche – While reviewing the size and configuration of multiple barns/outbuildings that existed in a single connected formation, it was decided to simplify the data collected for those multiple structures and identify it as one barn with a hayloft. This resulted in a reduction in value of Mr. Micche’s outbuildings. The current value of the property is $326,700.
