Arial;mso-fareast-language:JA">Welcome to the next episode in the twists and
turns of our 14 year old property tax lawsuit.
Earlier this year the Nevada Supreme Court issued its third major
decision in this case, declaring the State Board of Equalization's order to
reappraise 2003 – 2005 property values outside its statutory authority and
directing the District Court to equalize the assessments for those years as
required by law. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">District Court Judge Patrick Flanagan held a
hearing on June 1 to review the Supreme Court's ruling. The County and State wanted the judge to send
the case back to the State Board of Equalization. The Village League argued that, under the
Supreme Court's ruling, the District Court should just make the necessary legal
rulings and get the matter resolved. The
Judge, however, decided in mid-July to send the matter back to the State Board
of Equalization. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">The remedy to equalize the unconstitutional
assessments in the Incline Village area is crystal clear and written in
stone: properties were unconstitutionally
valued and those values are void; taxes paid on those unconstitutional values
must be refunded. Repeatedly, since
2006, the Nevada Supreme Court has made this clear – in the separate landmark
decisions known as </span><i style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">Bakst, Barta, Village
League</i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">, and others. The State Board
has already concluded that there is a lack of equalization at Incline
Village/Crystal Bay for the tax years 2003-2005. In fairness and under the law, all residential
properties must be set to 2002 constitutional values and excess taxes
refunded. County and State officials,
however, continue to defy the Supreme Court.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">The Supreme Court has stated openly that this
matter has gone on far too long. Judge
Flanagan, as well, decried the injustice of the long delay. Yet here we are again, looking at another
hearing before the State Board most likely to be followed by another round of
appeals in the District Court and possibly in the Supreme Court. Government officials have no sympathy for
taxpayers whose properties have been unconstitutionally valued and who pay
their salaries but apparently endless resources to frustrate our efforts for
justice. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 16pt;">So
we are before the State Board again. The
Board has set a hearing for this coming Tuesday, August 29 at 8:30 AM in Room
2134 of the Legislative Counsel Bureau on 401 South Carson Street, Carson City. We welcome / encourage your participation and
hope to see you there.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:

17.0pt;font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:Arial;mso-fareast-language:JA">We
have filed a number of objections with the Board and will appear on Tuesday to
make the case once again for an equalization order that remedies
unconstitutional valuations by the Washoe County Assessor and bring justice to
Incline Village/Crystal Bay residential property taxpayers. We continue to have faith in a just result
and thank you for the support you have given throughout this long process.</span><span style="font-size:16.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:17.0pt;font-family:Arial;mso-bidi-font-family:
