.: MINUTES OF ORONO 1992 RECONVENED BOARD OF REVIEW MEETING HELD MAY 11, 1992 Peterson recommended that he consider appealing to the County. Erickson stated he should do that as soon as possible as they have a limited amount of appeals that they will permit before referring the rest onto court. Richard Edwards, 2480 Carman Street, PID# 20- 117 -23 12 0028, felt that his valuation was still too high because at least a third of his property is peat bog. He stated it is a poor piece of land and has problems with muskrats and beavers destroying the property. He noted the valuation set by the assessor is $313,000 and the appraisal that he had done noted the value at $275,000. Erickson stated the valuation is within 5% of the appraised valuation, which is an acceptable difference. He noted that the appraiser may have used unacceptable comparables if not familiar with the lake area. He noted he had not reviewed the appraisal submitted. Jabbour stated he wished the assessor had reviewed the appraisal. It was moved by Jabbour, seconded by Butler, to recommend a valuation of $303,000 for 1992 for Richard Edwards of 2480 Carman Street. Ayes 4, nays 0.. Goetten asked if they were suggesting to residents to have their properties appraised in order to get a reduction. Jabbour felt they were allowing citizens to go through the democratic process and that should include guidance by a professional value. Edwards noted the assessor had told h -im that he did not individually look at each property to determine value where a hired appraisal has looked at that specific property. - Cliff Otten, 3800 Wayzata Boulevard PID# 29- 118 -23 34 0009: 2251 Pine Ridge Lane, PID# 34- 118 -23 22 0017 2350 Wayzata Boulevard, PID #34- 118 -23 22 0014.
