The Butler County Board of Equalization conducted scheduled property protest hearings and approved the County Assessor's list of overvalued, undervalued and omitted real property at its July 6 meeting in David City.
After reconvening at 11:00 a.m., the Board proceeded through protest hearings docketed at five-minute intervals beginning at 11:05 a.m. The transcript lists scheduled hearings for Troy and Keri Hackendahl; Vanaro Farms LLC represented by Loretta Daro; William Perk; Russell Daro; two hearings for Matthew Ostry; Sally Roh and David Kment; and Linwood Pig LLC represented by Brad Stevermer.
County Clerk Lori Aschoff stated no other protests were received and said she would determine whether the Board's July 13 meeting could be canceled and inform members. Following the hearings, Tony Krafka moved to approve the Assessor's list of overvalued/undervalued and omitted real property as presented; Jan Sypal seconded the motion, which carried with an "All aye" vote.

The transcript does not include detailed outcomes for individual protests, only the docket of scheduled hearings and the final approval of the Assessor's list.
