Board upholds county valuation for 47 Ridge Road parcels after no-shows
Summary
Union County's board accepted the county's $65,000 per-lot valuation for a series of Ridge Road parcels after the appellant did not appear for hearings 2–47; the county said it used a nearby comparable and a standard allocation to derive the median $65,000 land value.
Union County's Board of Equalization and Review voted to accept the county valuation of $65,000 per lot for multiple Ridge Road parcels after the property owner did not appear for hearings 2 through 47.
County presenter Ryan Rose told the board that the parcels at issue are residential lots within a mixed-use development and that, because there were no sales of the specific subject lots in 2024, staff used a nearby comparable project to extract land value via the county’s standard allocation method. That analysis produced a median land value of $65,000 per lot.
Board members debated whether to spend time reviewing no‑show appeals and observed that previous meetings had declined to hear absent appellants. One board member summarized the practical effect: if the appellant “is not going to come and do it,” the county’s evidence stands. The board approved a motion to accept the county valuation for hearings 2–47 by voice vote; the transcript records the motion, second and voice approval but not a roll‑call tally.
Effect: The county value of $65,000 per lot will apply to the listed parcels (09213250 through 09213299 range), and the decision covers all affected parcels in the series in a single board action.
