Port Townsend, W A 98368
BOE: 03-96-R
PN: 977100711
The Board waived the filing deadline for the appellant and accepted her petition based on the showing of
good cause for late filing as outlined in RCW 84.40.038 (a) "Death or serious illness of the taxpayer or
his or her immediatefamily" and WAC 458-14-056 (a) "The taxpayer was unable to file the petition by
the filing deadline because of a death or serious illness of the taxpayer or of a member of the taxpayer's
immediate family occurring at or shortly before the time for filing. For purposes of this subsection. the
term "immediate family" includes, but is not limited to, a grandparent, parent, brother, sister, spouse,
child or grandchild." The appellant's change of value notice was mailed in November 2003. Her
husband passed away on November 3, 2003. A copy of his death certificate was provided to the Board as
supporting documentation.
Prior to the hearing being held, the appellant and the Assessor's office reached an agreement on a lower
true and fair market value for the parcel under appeal. An "Assessment Roll Corrections" form was
completed and signed by both parties reducing the value from S 185,565 ($22,500 for the land and
$163,065 for the improvements) to $154,600 ($22,500 for the land and $132,100 for the improvements).
Member DeLeo moved to accept the assessment correction. Vice-Chairman Broders seconded the
motion. The motion carried.

BOARD OF EQUALIZATION MINUTES - May 24,2004
Pajte: 2
ACCEPTANCE OF REQUESTS FOR RECONVENING
Three (3) "Requests for Reconvening" were received by the Board of Equalization for the 2003 season.
All were submitted on the basis that the taxpayers have met the specific requirement outlined in WAC
458-14-127 RECONVENED BOARDS-AUTHORITY (l)(c) which states that Boards of Equalization
may reconvene on their own authority to hear requests or appeals concerning the current assessment year
when the request or appeal is filed with the Board by April 30 of the tax year immediately following the
Board's regularly convened session and when a bona fide purchaser or contract buyer of record has
acquired an interest in real property subsequent to the first day of July and on or before December 31 of
the assessment year and the sale price was less than ninety percent of the assessed value. The Clerk of the
Board confirmed with the Assessor's office that all ofthe appellants have met this requirement. Member
DeLeo moved to reconvene the 2003 Board of Equalization for the following taxpayer appeals that were
timely filed:

Vice-Chairman Broders seconded the motion. The motion carried.
Prior to the hearings being held, all three (3) appellants and the Assessor's office reached agreements on
lower true and fair market values for their individual parcels under appeal. An "Assessment Roll
Corrections" form was completed for each parcel and each appellant signed their respective form, as did
the Assessor's representative.
As required by the Washington State Department of Revenue, the Board of Equalization must issue an
order for all appeals for which the Board has reconvened, regardless of any "Assessment Roll Corrections"
agreed to by appellants and the Assessor. Therefore, the Board stipulated to the agreed upon values and
issued the following determination orders for those appeals.
