PROPERTY TAX APPEAL BOARD'S DECISION
APPELLANT: Randy Drogos
DOCKET NO.: 06-21513.001-R-1
PARCEL NO.: 08-13-307-030-0000
The parties of record before the Property Tax Appeal Board are
Randy Drogos, the appellant, by attorney Julie Realmuto of
McCarthy & Duffy, Chicago, Illinois; and the Cook County Board
of Review.
The subject property is a 44-year old, one-story style dwelling
of frame and masonry construction containing 1,458 square feet
of living area with a full, finished basement.
The appellant's appeal is based on unequal treatment in the
assessment process. The appellant submitted four comparable
properties described as one-story or one and one-half-story
frame and masonry dwellings that are between 38 and 64 years old
for consideration. The comparables contain from 1,654 to 1,792
square feet of living area and have improvement assessments
ranging from $10.90 to $11.87 per square foot. The subject's
improvement assessment is $14.31 per square foot. Based on this
evidence, the appellant requested a reduction in the subject's
improvement assessment.
The board of review submitted its "Board of Review Notes on
Appeal" wherein the subject's final assessment was disclosed.
The board of review presented three comparable properties
consisting of one-story frame and masonry dwellings that are
either 35 or 43 years old, respectively. The dwellings range
from 1,439 to 1,570 square feet and have improvement assessments
ranging from $15.36 to $17.32 per square foot. Based on this
evidence, the board of review requested confirmation of the
subject's assessment.
