Field number 289. -Value has been based on a conversation with Joe Crusey at 09/10/2005 opening when he stated that "all his appraisals that were done in '98 and prior should be double now". Because last appraisal was done on these objects in 7/10/01, these values are now 150% rather than 200%. CRS. |
