2014 Cass County Board of Equalization LeeVon Sauvageau LeeVon Sauvageau, at 8520 University Drive S, Stanley Twp, is asking that her valuation be reviewed. Ms. Sauvageau was not able to appear at the Stanley Twp board of equalization. Ms. Sauvageau recently built a 1,900 sq. ft. rambler with an attached garage and bonus room above the garage. For 2014, the proposed assessment is agricultural land-$18,300, Residential lot-$70,000, Residential Structures $255,500 for a total valuation of $343,800. The appraisal for mortgage purposes valued the property at $330,000. I visited the property and measured the structure. The size indicated on the appraisal and property card appear correct. The size appears incorrect on the builder's sketch. Ms. Sauvegeau felt that the lot value may be high compared lots in a subdivision south of the subject. It appears that those river lots have experienced bank slide problems. If there are additional issues, Ms. Sauvageau is advised to file for abatement of taxes. The Stanley Township Board would then review the matter and the Cass County Board would then make a determination. Suggested Motion: "I move that the LeeVon Sauvageau assessment be upheld, as equalized by the Stanley Township Board of Equalization."
