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