Greater Statesville Chamber of Commerce at the board meeting. REPORT ON REVALUATION: Mr. Brent Weisner and Mrs. Lois Troutman discussed the 1992 Revaluation with the Board. Mr. Weisner said they are using the old maps in the revaluation process, and hopefully the new ones will be ready by the next revaluation. They are planning to send out questionnaires to property owners to solicit information on sales, cost of construction, and income information. They are planning to do this over the next year for assistance in the appraisal information. They are doing a much-needed edit to the property addresses currently located on the property cards. The addresses they have now are very old and haven't been updated in years, and this will be a great help to them. They would like to do retrievals with property addresses in the future. The most important part of the project is the field review. There are 6170 actual accumulative reviews of parcels completed, a little ahead of their schedule. This is the actual process of doing the street review of the property and doing a comparison of the existing information on the property card and coming up with a tentative appraised value that will be constantly reviewed during the project with a final review late next year before notices are sent out. They now plan to send notices the first of December 1991, and see no reason they cannot keep that schedule and start the hearings in December. They have projected to have informal hearings for a period of approximately three months and then address the property owners complaints and hopefully have Equalization and Review sometime in June 1992. The percent complete is 21.99%, as on the end of July 1990. This is a weighted average of the ' percentages listed on each of the items in the process. The are working in Bethany and Concord Townships and Statesville Townships. They are about 50% through with their first pass at Statesville and Bethany and maybe 10% complete in Concord Township. The procedure they are using is not taking out the property cards and doing in-depth appraisals as they did in 1984. They are taking out reports that have the crucial information like land value, acreage, size of the lot,
