PROPERTY TAX APPEAL BOARD'S DECISION
APPELLANT: William Kashul
DOCKET NO.: 04-24134.001-R-1
PARCEL NO.: 09-27-218-076-0000
The parties of record before the Property Tax Appeal Board are
William Kashul, the appellant, by attorney Rusty A. Payton of the
Law Offices of Rusty A. Payton, P.C., Chicago, Illinois; and the
Cook County Board of Review.
The subject property is a 16-year old, two-story masonry dwelling
containing 3,215 square feet of living area with a full,
unfinished basement, central air conditioning, two fireplaces,
and a two-car garage.
The appellant submitted evidence before the Property Tax Appeal
Board claiming unequal treatment in the assessment process as the
basis of the appeal. In support of the equity argument, the
appellant submitted a grid analysis detailing four suggested
comparable properties. The appellant plotted seven comparable
properties on the map included with the appeal, but only four
properties were listed on the grid analysis. On the appellant's
map, one of the comparables is located one block from the
subject, and the others are located approximately one-quarter to
one-half mile from the subject. The comparables are two-story
masonry or frame and masonry dwellings that are one to 47 years
old. Two comparables have full basements; one has a partial
basement; and one has an unfinished basement. Three comparables
have central air conditioning, and three have fireplaces.
Photographs supplied by the appellant indicate that at least
three comparables have garages. The dwellings have living areas
that contain 2,912 to 3,461 square feet, and their improvement
assessments range from $8.06 to $14.77 per square foot. The
subject property has an improvement assessment of $16.36 per
square foot. Based on this evidence, the appellant requested a
reduction in the subject's improvement assessment.
