Present were the following members of the Board: Mayor Jack L. Kabcenell Mayor Elect Salvatore M. Cresenzi Trustee Milton Meiskin Trustee Mario J. Nardi Trustee Francis Filipowski Also present were: Christopher J. Russo, Village Administrator Georgia Kramer, Village Attorney Barbara Chase, Assessor Trustee Elect Robert J. Ravich Trustee Elect Michele R. Mendicino Jean A. Marra, Deputy Village Clerk 00.1. 0113 March 16, 1988 Assessor Barbara Chase explained that all of the grievances filed were reviewed and based on inspections she recommended certain changes. Avis Rent A Car requested a reduction from $765,100 to $9,000 she stated, and that matter was in litigation with the Town of Rye. Ms. Chase added that there was a recent decision in California regarding the tax status of rental car agencies on publicly owned property and the court ruled in favor of the rental agency. Of the 14 homes on Candy Lane, 11 filed grievances, Ms. Chase stated, and she met with all of them and discovered that there were some drainage problems and flooding of basements in the area. Attorney Georgia Kramer suggested that if it was determined to be a timely filing, then the next step ought to be proceeded with. The Assessor said she would check the recent sale price and Mayor Kabcenell suggested that the matter be held off for now. Two grievances were filed the night of the meeting, Ms. Chase stated -- one was for an enlarged deck; not an additional one and the other application was in error. The Assessor was then requested by Mayor Kabcenell to review the Candy Lane properties. The last grievance to be discussed was the Ridge Bowman Building (the building the Village Offices occupy) . Last year, Assessor Chase stated, the building was assessed at $247,900 and she added that she just received a copy of the lease for the State Department of Taxation and Finance; and that lease was effective as of February 13, 1988. Mayor Kabcenell summarized by saying that Candy Lane, the status of Brook II Ventures and Avis would be considered for budget purposes. - 2 - 0010.141 March 16, 1988 At this time, since no one appeared to be heard, and on motion duly made and seconded, the meeting of the Assessment Board of Review was adjourned and the Board proceeded to canvass the votes.
