ORDER OF THE JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
Sherrie Johnston
Appeal No.: BOE 18 -04 -LO
Parcel No.: 502 213 019
Issue: Under appeal is a vacant waterfront parcel located in Brinnon. The appellant asserts the true and
fair market value of the property to be $67,328. The Assessor's valuation of the property as of January 1,
2018 is $70,695.
Appellant's Argument and Evidence: The appellant's petition was difficult to read and she was not
present to offer verbal testimony or clarification. Evidence supporting the appellant's estimate of value
was not included with the petition. The appellant's primary argument was that no improvements had been
made to the property and there had been a theft of oysters estimated to be $2,500.
Assessor's Argument and Evidence: The Assessor's representative testified that the parcel did warrant a
reduction due to shoreline setback requirements. He recommended a corrected valuation of $67,328.
Decision: After consideration of all testimony and evidence, the Board of Equalization overrules the
Assessor's original determination of value of $70,695 and finds that a preponderance of the evidence
supports a true and fair market value of $67,328.
