The Appellant, Timothy & Diane Hoosier, was represented by Diane Hoosier. IdaMae Jensen & Tom
Gibbons were in attendance representing the Assessor.
The Appellant testified that they purchased the property in 2014 as a foreclosure . The Appellant also
testified that a permit was issued for a marijuana grow farm one-quarter mile away from the subject
property in 2014 . The Appellant testified they were not aware, at that time, that a marijuana grow farm
would be located so close to their property. The Appellant testified that the odor from the grow farm was a
nuisance and adversely affected their property value and therefore a reduction in the assessed value was
warranted.
Since 2014, Mason County zoning was changed to no longer permit marijuana grow farms in a residential
area. Furthermore, a marijuana grow operation is now required to publicly notify properties in the
surrounding area.
The Appellant challenged the Assessor ' s comparable sales, specifically comparable sales # 1 through #3 as
she testified they were not close in proximity to the subject property. She testified further that comparable
sale #4 was one-half mile away from the grow operation, too far away from the grow operation to
experience any odor. The Appellant also noted that two additional sales provided by the Assessor occurred
after January 1 , 2017 . The Appellant did not provide any market evidence to support her estimated value of
$ 317, 650 for the subject parcel .
Page 2
Petition No. 174.2018 Parcel No . 3190244- 90030
The Assessor provided four comparable sales with a value range of $ 377,570 - $402,440 , The subject
parcel ' s assessed value of $ 395 ,390 fell within this value range . Three additional comparable sales further
supported that no adverse market reaction was found in respect to properties in close proximity to marijuana
operation facilities . Two of these additional sales were also located within the subject parcel ' s immediate
neighborhood. Two of the additional sales also occurred after January 2017 . The Board accepted these
additional comparable sales as evidence to support the current market ' s condition to sustain its value despite
the location of the marijuana grow facilities .
Therefore the Board sustains the assessed value of $ 395 , 390 .
