The Yolo County Assessment Appeals Board voted March 26 to approve several stipulations on pending assessment appeals, accept an amended roll value submitted by an applicant, and deny two late applications for non-appearance while noting the agent had indicated a desire to withdraw by email.
Board members approved stipulations for several assessment appeals under agenda item 7 and later accepted an amendment to original roll values on form BOE-305AH related to three applications identified in the record as 20-236, 20-237 and 20-238. The board then approved stipulations tied to those three applications, listed in the record as filings for Shilling Robotics LLC. At a later point the board considered two late applications, numbered 23086 and 23087, and denied them for non-appearance after staff reported no formal withdrawal had been filed with the board.
The corrections to the roll were described in the meeting as the result of an incorrect entry on the original application. A staff or applicant representative told the board that the agent had “incorrectly enter[ed] the roll values” on the original filing and subsequently submitted a revised application showing the correct values; the board accepted the amended roll values and approved the related stipulations. The amended roll value discussed for one parcel was confirmed as $1,400,000.00.
On the late-application matter, assessment staff described the department’s notice and reminder process and said they had sent mailed notices and email reminders; staff reported no substantive response from the applicant to the clerk’s reminders. Chief Deputy Assessor George Gilling told the board he had received an email from an agent, identified in the record as Bryce Alford, indicating the agent was aware of the appeals, had discussed value, and that he "was going to withdraw them," but that no formal withdrawal had been filed with the board. The board then moved to deny applications 23086 and 23087 for non-appearance while noting the agent’s stated intent to withdraw.

The meeting record indicates questions from board members about whether mailed notices and emails reached the address requested by the applicant; staff said they mailed the standard notice and sent reminders by email and would provide the board with the sent letter on request. The application file listed an address of 29219 Conwood Street in Angora Hills for the late appeals.
The board adjourned into closed session at the end of the public meeting.
