This decision is based on our finding that:
The Appellant, Eretz Capital, LLC , was not present at the hearing on October 8, 2019 . The Assessor was
represented by IdaMae Jensen and Joshua Green.
The Board reviewed the petition submitted by the Appellant. On the petition, the Appellant noted that there
were no improvements on the property. The improvements had been destroyed .
The Appellant also submitted a site plan and noted the subject property was commercial property with
19, 166 sq ft. The date of purchase was 7/31 /2015 for $ 375 ,000, which was a combined price with the
neighboring lot.
The Appellant noted on the petition that there was significant low and wet features reducing the buildable
area.
The information submitted by the Assessor noted that the subject parcel' s site was 19, 166 sq ft of level
terrain. They also noted that the site has wetland setbacks and applied a factor of 15 % to the land value to
account for the limitations the wetland area poses .
While the improvements have been destroyed, nevertheless a footprint remains for future development.
The Assessor also noted that the site plan submitted by the Appellant was unrecorded and therefore the
Board did not give the plan consideration.

Petition No. 318. 2019 Parcel No. 12329- 4340000
The Assessor noted there was no listing history of the sales for the subject parcel. The subject site and the
contiguous property were purchased as two independent and legal parcels, and therefore must be valued
independently.
The Board found no clear, cogent and convincing evidence to overrule the assessed value.
Therefore, the Board sets the value of the subject property at $ 120,475 for the land .
