<b>DATE:</b> February 8, 2004<br>
<b>TO:</b> Incline Village & Crystal Bay Property Owners<br>
<b>FROM:</b> Nevada Property Tax Revolt Committee</font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular"><b>Dear Fellow Incline Village & Crystal Bay Property Owners,</b></font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">We have filed nearly 1,200 Petitions for Review of Assessed Valuation for the Incline Village/Crystal Bay area with the Washoe County Board of Equalization. A number of Petitions were received too late to be included on the official list; however, if we are successful, we feel that those folks can also benefit.</font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">As stated in Alert #62, which was sent on January 3rd, we needed to receive authorizations by January 13th, in order to file the appropriate paper work by January 18th.</font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">Amy Harvey, Clerk of the Board of Equalization, has been very prompt in mailing out the notices to all of those for whom we were able to file.</font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">If you would like to verify that your name is on the list of Petitioners, please <a href="../pdf/FiledPropertyPetitions.pdf">click here</a> for a 15 page list.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1" color="#00008b" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular"><b>The Hearing and Dates</b></font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">Attorney Tom Hall is representing all of the Appellants. The hearings are scheduled for February 16, 17 and 18, 2005 at the Washoe County Commission Chambers located at 1001 East Ninth Street in Reno, and will start at 9:00AM. </font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">Tom Hall and other speakers will be presenting our case on Wednesday, February 16th. The Washoe County Assessors will be rebutting our claims on Thursday, February 17th. We will have an opportunity to answer the Assessors probably Thursday afternoon and/or Friday morning. The Washoe County Board of Equalization will rule on our total mass Petition presentation on Friday, February 18th.</font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">If possible, we urge you to attend at least the Wednesday hearing. Attending Thursday and Friday would be wonderful as well. The hearings will begin at 9:00 AM each day.</font></p>
<p><font size="+1" color="#00008b" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular"><b>Reasons given for Petition</b></font></p>
<p><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">In summary, there are four reasons filed in each petition:</font></p>
<ul>
<li><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">That the 8% tax increase on all residential land in our area (land factor) is invalid. </font>
<li><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">There has been a failure to properly equalize assessments inside and outside of Washoe County. </font>
<li><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">We have been denied due process of law. </font>
<li><font size="-1" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">There has been a failure to follow the proper Rules and Regulations in appraising and assessing properties. </font>
</ul>
<p><font color="red" face="Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular">This is an occasion that you do not want to miss!!! Mark you calendar for Wednesday, February 16, 2005 now. </font></p>
