WANGENSTEEN <br />ATTORNEY AT LAW <br />FAX: (612) 473 -0184 <br />EC <br />D <br />APR 1 6 1990 <br />on the agenda for April 17. I spoke <br />and explained that I would not attend <br />my right of review by the County <br />Although I will not quarrel with the amount of the <br />assessment as far as fair market value (I think the home is <br />worth at least that much) I do argue with the fairness of <br />the assessment as it compares with other assessments in the <br />City. (I will point out that I tried to sell it last year <br />and the highest offer I had was $175,000) I believe that I <br />am being assessed at a higher percentage towards fair market <br />value than your own figures will show others are being <br />assessed. I have a complete list of your newest assessment. <br />(I think also raising the lakeshore percentage at a greater <br />rate than non - lakeshore at a time of lower lake levels due <br />to drought is illogical as values are reduced) <br />I appeared two years ago before the City Board. I felt that <br />the Mayor was arrogant and rude, not just to me, but to <br />others, and do not care to subject myself to his arrogance <br />again. I was disappointed that an elected official was so <br />unresponsive or sarcastic to the people there that evening. <br />I rather expect he is not like that when seeking votes. I <br />think a better test of a person is how decent and responsive <br />he is when he has the power to be a dink rather than how he <br />• bullies others who cannot fight back. That to me indicates a <br />small person. I also think that Orono, with its assessment <br />policies, has been responsible for long -time lakeshore <br />
