2) <br />3) <br />4) <br />5) <br />6) <br />7) <br />Reading materials provided by the VAB Clerk from other Counties (no time charged for this <br />information) <br />Revisiting the hearing information, including possibly rehearing the audio and going over the <br />hearing documents. <br />Revisiting the FS, rules and regulations to support appropriate findings where it was not in line <br />with the VAB Attorney opinion. Deleting references to DR -439 when they were not presented <br />at the hearing, and providing findings based on the adjustments to 100% sales price of the sales <br />versus the assessed value to support appropriate 1s' and 8'h Criteria adjustments. The majority <br />of this information was contained in the original reports, but the entire report had to be <br />scrutinized to make sure the appropriate support was provided in the report and that anything <br />not appropriate was eliminated. (I can provide you with the original reports and corrected reports <br />if desired.) <br />Supporting findings based on the hearing material, FS193 and other legal information provided <br />in the VAB training. Particularly attention was paid to.Module 6. ( I can provide a copy of this if <br />you desire.) While the training is not the law, it does support the FS and other documents. <br />Clarifying and rewriting reports, providing the updated report to AXIA, and providing an e-mail <br />to the VAB Clerk to be forwarded to the VAB Attorney regarding the changes and/or no changes <br />made to the reports (If you would like I can provide these e-mails, and a conversation with you <br />on the areas where the VAB Attorney and I do not agree, based on FS, VAB training and <br />professionally accepted appraisal practices.) <br />The clarified reports were updated as soon as possible once the VAB Attorney concerns were <br />available. <br />Adjustments to the Time Sheet <br />Those no shows that were presented at the same time are adjusted to several minutes each for the <br />hearing. The no shows that required more time are adjusted to less than 1 hour. Adjustment is made <br />to the time required to review and write the no show report at '/Z hour each. No shows provide a <br />challenge at the hearing. Sometimes time is necessary to clarify that it is a no-show, and or waiting an <br />appropriate time. The hearings are scheduled and the Magistrate and staff are at the hearing. I no <br />longer have these files in my office and would need to look at the file to be more precise as to how much <br />time was relegated to them. Each one does require a report to be written and filed. I have changed the <br />report time to'/z hour, although I have in my notes that I spent approximately 1 hour on each. Some <br />time is required to find the audio, as it may not be filed with the petition, or put together who is <br />responsible for which no-show. The petitioner may not be available, but someone else in their office is <br />contacted. I had to create files for each of these, as they were not kept independently in files at the <br />hearings, but may have been co -mingled with other hearings. <br />The hearing review and report writing times are divided into time for the original report and time for the <br />clarification report. Dates are added for the days when the original review/report writing was made. The <br />dates of the clarification reports are the dates that the reports were uploaded to AXIA, as I kept track <br />of hours involved, but only kept track of the date uploaded. <br />Notation are included for hours where the Magistrate worked with not charged (NC). Hours charged for <br />the clarifications were rounded down. Note charges for the 2020-84/85 petition include reassessment <br />of the independent parcels. I was unaware that the assessment had to be changed on both parcels <br />independently, not all attributed only to the building parcel. <br />I spoke with Jeffrey Smith about the delay in writing my initial reports, and apologize for my timing. I <br />have no control over the reviews, but attempted to clarify these reports quickly. <br />If I can be of additional help in clarifying these issues, I will be happy to provide information to the VAB. <br />Sincerely, <br />Juliana E. Young, ARA <br />Cert Gen RZ571 �, u <br />-32- <br />
