The appellant, through counsel, submitted evidence before the

Based on the appellant's documents, the five suggested
comparables consist of one-story or one and one-half story,
single-family dwellings of frame or frame and masonry
construction with the same neighborhood code as the subject. The
improvements range in size from 2,647 to 3,982 square feet of
living area and range in age from 20 to 29 years. The
comparables contain two and one-half, three or three and one-half
bathrooms, an unfinished basement, a fireplace, air-conditioning
and a two-car or three-car garage. The improvement assessments
