PROPERTY TAX APPEAL BOARD'S DECISION
APPELLANT: Deana Curcio
DOCKET NO.: 03-25145.001-R-1
PARCEL NO.: 14-19-109-021-0000
The parties of record before the Property Tax Appeal Board are
Deana Curcio, the appellant, by attorney Stephanie Park, Chicago,
and the Cook County Board of Review.
The subject property consists of a 97-year-old, two-story, multi-family
dwelling of masonry construction containing 3,947 square
feet of living area and located in Lake View Township, Cook
County. Features of the building include four full bathrooms, a
full-unfinished basement and a two-car attached garage.
The appellant, through counsel, submitted evidence before the
Property Tax Appeal Board arguing unequal treatment in the
assessment process of the improvement as the basis of the appeal.
In support of this claim, the appellant submitted assessment data
and descriptive information on eight properties suggested as
comparable to the subject. The appellant also submitted a two-page
brief, a photograph of the subject and a copy of the board
of review's decision. Based on the appellant's documents, the
eight suggested comparables consist of two-story or three-story,
multi-family dwellings of masonry construction located within the
subject's neighborhood. The improvements range in size from
3,592 to 4,086 square feet of living area and range in age from
78 to 99 years. The comparables contain from two and one-half to
four full bathrooms, a finished or unfinished basement and a one-car
or two-car detached garage. The improvement assessments
range from $12.45 to $13.34 per square foot of living area.
Based on this evidence, the appellant requested a reduction in
the subject's improvement assessment.
