Error in the name of the person assessed, upon affidavit verifying the name of the true owner as of October 1 of the taxable year involved;2. Error in the address of the person, firm or corporation assessed, when furnished by such person or a representative of the firm or corporation;3.

Error commonly called duplicate assessment, but only in instances where the two entries as delivered to the county treasurer are verified by the county treasurer or deputy to be completely identical in every specific detail; and8. Error in transcribing to the tax rolls from assessment rolls or assessment lists, conditioned on complete absence of all indication of erasures or other alteration of original entry when confirmed by endorsement to the certificate by the county clerk certifying to personal visual inspection and verifying absence of all indication of erasure or change in original entry.Added by Laws 1988, c. 162, § 74, eff.
