Coastal Beach) It is clear that the valuation process then used -- $275 pert-r~rlt- Foot

BOE-87-082-LO-Parcel # 921-194-028 - The Board inspected this parcel at 10:35 A.M.
on 09-02-87. It was noted that natural drainage collected in a swail through the
southern half of the lot and was retained by the fill of Oak Bay Road. It was
determined that therE: is a well in the upper northwestern corner of the lot near the
access driveway to the lot above. It would have to be determined whether there is
area for a septic system in the lot.
The Board approved 27% reduction in the assessed value of the lot because of
topography,drainage and potential septic system problem.
BOE-87-081-R-Parcel #821-262-003: The Board made an inspection of this parcel at
10:00 A.M. on 09-02-87. It was determined that the 200 front foot, relatively low
bank lot facing Hood Canal has the depth and terrain to support the development of a
second home. The current revaluation considered that the solid brtck veneered home
is of average quality construction and is currently 80% complete,
The Board considers that the land valuation (200 FF x 350 = $70,000)
less 5% for excess (-$3,500) plus Tidelands (200 FF x $10 " 2,000)
plus $1,000 for land improvements for a total of $69,500 should be Sustained.

The Board inspected this parcel in the early

The lot is flat and easily buildable with all
The Board noted that the lot was purchased in 1984 for $25,000 and that the lot to ,
the west of it was purchased in 1984 for $25,900; therefore it took action to adjust
the valuation down to $25,900.
BOE-87-084-R - Parcel # 990-600-369: The Board inspected this parcel at 11:00 A.M.
on 08-31-87. It was determined that the lot has been improved with landscaping and
commands an outstanding view of Admiralty Inlet below, The home is a large structure
with major basement area improved; however, it was the judgement of the Board and the
Assessor that the construction is good rather than very good.
The Board took action to sustain the land valuation of $48,500 and to adjust
the building improvements down to $153,225 totalling $201,725.
BOE-87-085-LO - Parcel # 990-700-005: The Board inspected this parcel at 10:35 on
8-31-87. It was determined that the lot has been partially cleared, that is has a
main street at the back and a dead-end street in front of it. The: Board also inspected
comparable lots in Div. III -- Lot 87 and Lot 6.
Having noted that this parcel was reduced in valuation in 1984 from 18,000 to
$15,000, the Board Sustained the current valuation of $15,000.
BOE-87-86-LO - PARCEL # 942-300-052: The Board inspected this parcel at 10:15 A.M,
on 09-09-87, The main issue at the hearing earlier was why this and three adjacent
lots had received a 60% reduction in the 1983 revaluation. This inspection noted
that the topography of the lot would maKe it difficult for development and construction
and has no road access.
The Board took action to sustain the current valuation of $5,000.
BOE-87-087-R -- Parcel # 954-600-118: The Board inspected this parcel at 10:23 A.M.
on 09-16-87. It was determined that the lot has 100 front feet of low banK above a
good beach with easy walk-on access; however, the beach access road from the highway
to the building sites passes within a few feet ofth:;! house on this lot. It was noted
that the tidelands in front of this lot are carried under another parcel number.
The major issue at the time of the hearing was why the 10,000 increase in land
valuation at the most recent revaluation. It has been determined that the
previous valuation was based on $270 insteas of $300 per front foot and the recent
revaluation included an additional allowance of 20% fora~ess from the road to the beach
and that there were no land improvements considered in the previous valuation.
The Board took action to sustain the current building improvements at $20,960
and to adjust the land valuation to $300 per front foot plus $1,000 for land
improvements totaling $31,000. No adjustment was given for the road access
because its proximity to the house is a deterrent to the full use of the building
site.
