The meeting was called to order by Chairman Dalgleish with all members present.
Racnael Nathenson from the Planning Department, Mark McCready and Assessor Jack
Westerman represented the Assessors Office.
The.purpose of the meeting was to review the Cederholm Villa portion of the
Thorndyke Slide area.
Mr. George H. Nichols of Seattle had complained that although he is within the
moratorium, his taxes had increased.
The Board had taken this matter into consideration in 1983 and on September 14, 1983
nad issued a directive to the Assessor to reduce the lots in this area by 50%.
However, the Assessor had no knowledge of receiving this order and had therefore
not taken th'is action. The original order and the copy of this order were both found .... .t
in the Board of Equalization files so the Assessor received the order today, Feb-
ruary 2, 1984. .
The Assessor expressed his opinion that a 50% reduction was too high as upper por-
tions of these lots are buildable. After discussion and identification of boundary
lines on the maps it was discovered that the Board had based their decision on a
misintrepretation on the map covering the moratorium area.
. ~
It was decided that Mr. Westerman will call the .Revenue Department to get advise
on how to handle the technical end of making the necessary changes and the Board
will meet with him again Tuesday, March 6, 1984 at 10:00 a.m.
Having no further business, the meeting adjourned.
