PROPERTY TAX APPEAL BOARD'S DECISION
APPELLANT: Thaddeus Lasiewicz
DOCKET NO.: 06-20163.001-R-1
PARCEL NO.: 01-27-306-018-0000
The parties of record before the Property Tax Appeal Board are
Thaddeus Lasiewicz, the appellant, by attorney Julie Realmuto of
McCarthy & Duffy, in Chicago, and the Cook County Board of
Review.
The subject property is a 25-year old, two-story style dwelling
of frame and masonry construction containing 4,963 square feet of
living area. Features of the home include central air-conditioning,
one fireplace and a full unfinished basement.
The appellant's appeal is based on unequal treatment in the
assessment process. The appellant submitted three comparable
properties described as two-story frame and masonry or masonry
dwellings that are 15 to 25 years old for consideration. The
comparables contain 4,259 to 4,904 square feet of living area and
have improvement assessments of $9.88 to $12.83 per square foot.
The subject's improvement assessment is $15.40 per square foot.
Based on this evidence, the appellant requested a reduction in
the subject's improvement assessment.
The board of review submitted its "Board of Review Notes on
Appeal" wherein the subject's final assessment was disclosed.
The board of review presented four comparable properties
consisting of two-story frame and masonry dwellings that are 20
to 22 years old. The comparables feature full finished or
unfinished basements, central air-conditioning and one to three
fireplaces. These properties contain 4,312 to 4,515 square feet
and have improvement assessments of $15.95 to $17.12 per square
foot. Based on this evidence, the board of review requested
confirmation of the subject's assessment.
