Chairman Marlow stated that this property is recorded under two separate parcel numbers because the appellant is in the senior citizen exemption program.

He feels the Assessor's valuation fairly reflects the issues brought up by the appellant. During the hearing, the Assessor's representative stated that since the value of the property must be split between the two parcel numbers, he recommends that the Board place more of the value on the portion of property in the senior citizen exemption program so that the appellant will receive more of an exemption and in turn, would result in a reduction in value for the remaining property which is not exempt.
