Erickson referred the Council to page 15 of the report. He said he sent <br />Mosley a letter recommending no change in the assessed value. Mosley said he felt there <br />were major discrepancies between his property and those used as comparisons. Erickson <br />said the properties noted were not comparable sales but only sales. <br />Jabbour informed Mosley that the assessed value must be within 5% of the true value. <br />He said the Council relied on the assessor as their expert in this area. He indicated the <br />Council will only override the assessed value if there are obvious discrepancies. <br />
