PROPERTY TAX APPEAL BOARD'S DECISION
APPELLANT: Edward Benford
DOCKET NO.: 03-30524.001-R-1
04-27094.001-R-1
05-24763.001-R-1
PARCEL NO.: 14-33-305-002
TOWNSHIP: North
The parties of record before the Property Tax Appeal Board
(hereinafter PTAB) are Edward Benford, the appellant, by attorney
David C. Dunkin with the law firm of Arnstein & Lehr in Chicago
and the Cook County Board of Review.
The subject property consists of a 2,500 square foot parcel of
land containing an 11-year old, two-story, masonry, single-family
dwelling. The improvement contains three and one-half baths, and
three fireplaces.
The appellant, via counsel, raised two arguments: first, that
the square feet of living area as listed by the board of review
is incorrect; and second, that there was unequal treatment in the
assessment process of the improvement.
At the hearing, the appellant requested, without objection, that
the three appeals be consolidated. The PTAB finds that all three
years are within the same triennial reassessment cycle and,
therefore, these appeals are consolidated.
