Chair Bjerke proposed following State statute and City charter to establish hearing procedures. He also noted that it was suggested at the ad
hoc committee on reappraisal that when site visits are conducted, the Assessor can be asked by the property-owner not to attend. Ms.
McGovern also noted that it was suggested having a taping of a mock appeal session to show property-owners how the process of tax appeals

5.1 Approval of Subpoena
Deputy City Attorney Pellerin reviewed the subpoena, noting that the property is on 61 Elmwood Avenue. He said that in the subpoena, the
City requested the current rent role and the IRS schedule E form 8825 for the years 2021-2022 along with any professionally conducted
property appraisals in the last three years, as well as filling out an income and expense form (attached within the subpoena). He noted that
they are appealing due to the neighboring pod encampment, which has caused some tenants to vacate. Hs said that some tenants have a
decreased sense of security and that it is a less desirable location to live, given the proximity to the pod encampment. He said that the
appellant has contracted with a licensed appraiser to assess the value of the property, but that the appraisal has not to date been submitted.
He said that their appeal was denied by the Board of Assessors, and it has now escalated to this level. He said that the Board of Assessors is
waiting for an independent appraisal to quantify any decrease in property value.
