18456426153: Yes. 205 00:18:05.760 --> 00:18:09.900 18456426153: And you know appointments get made and not everybody always. 206 00:18:10.980 --> 00:18:19.950 18456426153: appears like they'll be applications that will come in that you'll discuss and you won't actually talk to the to the property owner, they just submit your application. 207 00:18:20.040 --> 00:18:20.580 18456426153: No, I. 208 00:18:20.730 --> 00:18:21.540 18456426153: know I remember that. 209 00:18:21.660 --> 00:18:24.210 Kennon Rothchild: In most cases they don't that they basically got. 210 00:18:24.270 --> 00:18:26.250 Kennon Rothchild: The letter that I got recently saying. 211 00:18:27.300 --> 00:18:31.350 Kennon Rothchild: let's grieve your taxes, you pay too much we can make you reduced and. 212 00:18:31.380 --> 00:18:32.280 18456426153: Some people actually. 213 00:18:32.310 --> 00:18:34.110 Kennon Rothchild: don't want that, and stuff like that no i'm. 214 00:18:34.770 --> 00:18:35.850 18456426153: Sorry yeah yeah. 215 00:18:40.860 --> 00:18:41.580 sylviajeff: Can I. 216 00:18:41.820 --> 00:18:57.150 sylviajeff: impose on everybody's just this is really my first rodeo with this, what should I expect other than apparently long meeting from four to nine it looks like and is there anything I need to do to prepare ahead of time for this like I haven't really ever really done this. 217 00:18:58.890 --> 00:19:00.480 Karen Tarapata: Oh go ahead. 218 00:19:02.250 --> 00:19:04.800 18456426153: yeah I was, I was gonna say I don't think so, I think that. 219 00:19:06.390 --> 00:19:07.920 18456426153: it's really the kind of thing. 220 00:19:09.060 --> 00:19:25.230 18456426153: I mean you can you could go on to our website and follow the link to how to file a tax grievance and you'll get an understanding of what someone is is about to present and there's an explanation of how to fill out that form and. 221 00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:31.710 18456426153: I think that'll give you a good understanding of what is going to be discussed at the meeting. 222 00:19:33.360 --> 00:19:41.520 18456426153: via the assessor is there, and she is Kathy has a wealth of information she's doing this, for I don't know over 30 years. 223 00:19:42.150 --> 00:19:58.170 18456426153: So she will explain anything any questions that come up I don't really think there's a lot, you could do ahead of time, other than looking at the you know what what's the what is the application look like what are people doing what are they. 224 00:19:59.550 --> 00:20:01.590 18456426153: You know what are they coming to ask for. 225 00:20:02.070 --> 00:20:04.080 18456426153: Okay it's really just took it yeah. 226 00:20:04.530 --> 00:20:04.800 Kennon Rothchild: yeah. 227 00:20:04.890 --> 00:20:07.110 Kennon Rothchild: Generally speaking, Jeff what. 228 00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.810 Kennon Rothchild: has happened in the past is we sit there and it's. 229 00:20:09.840 --> 00:20:10.860 Kennon Rothchild: it's four hours. 230 00:20:11.280 --> 00:20:20.250 Kennon Rothchild: But mostly there isn't much activity, because that's four hours for the public to come in, but we don't have constant. 231 00:20:20.340 --> 00:20:24.300 Kennon Rothchild: People coming in, for four hours, usually what happens in. 232 00:20:24.330 --> 00:20:38.700 Kennon Rothchild: My experience in the past, is there been anywhere between 10 to perhaps 15 entities that want to grieve of that about about seven eighths of them are being represented by. 233 00:20:39.810 --> 00:20:43.380 Kennon Rothchild: You know, tax lawyer groups who have said, you should grieve it. 234 00:20:44.580 --> 00:20:45.330 18456426153: and 235 00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:50.550 Kennon Rothchild: They all submit some sort of petition, later on, no human being, show up for those. 236 00:20:51.060 --> 00:20:57.510 Kennon Rothchild: And Kathy will tell us that you know, this is just come in and she'll review it for you know that whatever paperwork basement. 237 00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:09.300 Kennon Rothchild: Every once a while there one perhaps to property owners will come in and explain why they think that their taxes are too high, that they've been assessed in a prop in appropriately for. 238 00:21:10.380 --> 00:21:18.480 Kennon Rothchild: In addition, or should have been you know, whatever is something they'll explain it to us and we sit there and we listen and we can ask questions, but we don't make any decisions that evening. 239 00:21:19.590 --> 00:21:25.800 Kennon Rothchild: And what happens is Cathy takes that information in and we come back to the board with our recommendations. 240 00:21:25.800 --> 00:21:27.420 And we vote on those recommendations. 241 00:21:28.500 --> 00:21:28.830 Thank you. 242 00:21:30.060 --> 00:21:36.060 Karen Tarapata: And it's interesting too, because people have to grieve their taxes in Clarks can separately. 243 00:21:37.110 --> 00:21:38.310 Karen Tarapata: automatically if. 244 00:21:38.310 --> 00:21:40.740 18456426153: You do one it doesn't automatically change the other. 245 00:21:40.770 --> 00:21:41.970 Karen Tarapata: isn't that correct Carol. 246 00:21:42.750 --> 00:21:46.680 18456426153: Yes, you have to grieve in both with both entity. 247 00:21:47.700 --> 00:21:48.330 18456426153: In fact. 248 00:21:48.810 --> 00:21:57.030 Kennon Rothchild: Joe found himself, you know, Joe diamond our former trustee found himself grieving his upper nyack taxes so when he. 249 00:21:57.060 --> 00:22:04.110 Kennon Rothchild: saw his name on the list he withdrew as grievance from offer nyack because he'd gotten that same notice from. 250 00:22:04.110 --> 00:22:07.440 Kennon Rothchild: You know people representing it just sort of automatically filed it. 251 00:22:08.100 --> 00:22:08.700 18456426153: And then. 252 00:22:08.970 --> 00:22:10.770 Kennon Rothchild: When his name shut up and listen, he said, oh. 253 00:22:10.980 --> 00:22:15.780 Kennon Rothchild: Oh no I I withdraw my grievance here at upper nyack so yeah there's separate things. 254 00:22:16.920 --> 00:22:17.250 Okay. 255 00:22:19.860 --> 00:22:24.270 Karen Tarapata: All right, if we don't have anything else to discuss tonight. 256 00:22:24.600 --> 00:22:28.140 Karen Tarapata: We have done our work and we're moving ahead. 257 00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:30.420 Karen Tarapata: on many fronts. 258 00:22:31.560 --> 00:22:32.160 For sure. 259 00:22:34.170 --> 00:22:34.440 So. 260 00:22:35.490 --> 00:22:38.790 Karen Tarapata: With someone make a motion to close the. 261
