Alert #29:  A Message from Maryanne Ingemanson

Village League To Save Incline Assets, Inc.
1165 Vivian Lane
Incline Village, Nevada  89451

Dear Friends,

Now we know that the "League" really can get results!!   We won 
approximately $57,000,000 in reductions of taxable value for the Incline 
Village lakefront properties and $4,000,000 for the Mill Creek area 
parcels; and, we've just gotten started.  Only working together, as a 
group, could these amazing tax rollbacks have been achieved.  Our next 
efforts will be in the courts and at the State of Nevada Department of 
Taxation and the State of Nevada Tax Commission.  The Rules and 
Regulations, which are supposed to govern how the appraisers assess your 
property, must be made less subjective and more enforceable.   We, the 
taxpayers, cannot be expected to monitor the annual property assessments to 
determine if they are "uniform and equal", as required by law.  Many of the 
taxpayers who we were able to notify in time to appeal their assessments 
also received reductions, because of errors found in their "view 
classifications" or in the use of other methods of taxation that had never 
been approved by Nevada Statutes or the Tax Commission.

The ongoing legal challenges are for the benefit of all of the property 
owners in Incline Village and Crystal Bay, whether or not you have yet 
received any relief.  Help is on the way!  This confiscation of our assets 
through the illegal taxation of our homes will be stopped.  Keep filing 
your payments of taxes under protest, (the next payment is due October 6, 
2003), and watch for the announcement of the next phase of the Tahoe Tax 
Revolt.  You won't be disappointed!!

For those of you who have already received a tax reduction, a donation to 
the Village League of just 10% of the amount you saved, just this year, due 
to the efforts of the League, will help keep our war chest ready to meet 
the challenges that we know are coming.  We plan to win even more for you 
and your neighbors.  This is a tough fight; but, as a group, we have 
power.  The entire state is watching us.  We are going to give them 
something to remember!!

Every one of the members of the League who is working to help you is a 
volunteer.  Our only expenses are for attorneys and communications. Every 
dollar counts.

My personal thanks to the members of the League family who gathered 2600 
signatures on the petitions to present to the Nevada State Tax Commission, 
and to Ted Harris, Les Barta, Dale Akers, Chuck Otto, John Carney and Wayne 
Fischer, who have spent literally hundreds of hours on this endeavor.

Sincerely,
Maryanne Ingemanson, President
