Commissioners deny 2023 and 2024 tax-abatement requests for PID 05674200
Summary
Grant County commissioners denied two abatement applications (2023 and 2024) for PID 05674200, which sought base-value reductions to account for a missing basement; commissioners said abatements are limited to classification errors or double taxation.
Grant County commissioners on Aug. 6 denied two property tax-abatement applications for PID 05674200 that requested changes to base value to account for the absence of a basement. Commissioner Al Roy Hochhalter moved to deny each abatement and Vice Chairman Marty Meyer seconded; minutes record both motions as carried with all in favor voting aye.
The board stated its policy is to grant abatements only for errors in classification or instances of double taxation, citing confidence in the county’s appraisal service and the director of tax equalization’s prior review of reassessed properties. The minutes do not record additional evidence presented by the applicant or a valuation adjustment amount.
Because the minutes do not list a monetary change or a subsequent appeal, the denials stand as the formal action recorded for the two abatement requests at this meeting.
