Caretaker’s accessibility modifications prompt assessment cut for Aprilia Siska
Summary
The Board reduced the building value for PID 27158 to $288,200 (overall $338,200) after being briefed that the residence was modified from three bedrooms to two to provide a wheelchair-accessible bathroom for a disabled household member.
The Shenandoah County Board of Equalization recorded on June 25, 2026 that Aprilia Siska, the primary caretaker for her husband, could not attend the hearing in person; board members were advised of details from a prior phone call with Office Assistant Diehr. The minutes state the house originally had three bedrooms and two full baths but was altered during construction—two bedrooms were combined to create a handicap/wheelchair-accessible bathroom and bedroom, resulting in a functional two-bedroom residence.
After discussion the board voted (motion by Chris Biby; seconded by Butch Barnes) to reduce the building value to $288,200, lowering the overall assessed value to $338,200. The decision was recorded as unanimous in the minutes.
