MEMORANDUM

Posted: December 11, 2012 12:36 PM
From: Senator Richard A Kasunic
To: All Senate members
Subject: Assessment Appeal Filing Fee
 
In the near future, I will re-introduce two pieces of legislation that will prohibit Second through Eighth Class Counties from charging a filing fee to property owners (residential and commercial) who are appealing the assessed value of their property. These bills, by prohibiting this practice, would preserve the right of the property owner to freely contest the assessed value of his/her land.

Document #1

Introduced as SB377

Description:
The first piece will prohibit the fees in Third thru Eighth Class Counties.  This was Senate Bill 245 of last session and previous co-sponsors included: WOZNIAK, COSTA, BROWNE, BOSCOLA, ALLOWAY, TARTAGLIONE, WAUGH and FERLO.
 

Document #2

Introduced as SB376

Description:
The second piece will prohibit the fees in Second Class Counties.  This was Senate Bill 246 of last session and previous co-sponsors included: WOZNIAK, COSTA, BROWNE, BOSCOLA, ALLOWAY, TARTAGLIONE, WAUGH and FERLO.
