The primary oversight in the City's calculation in the <br />March 7 letter is that the calculation fuiled to take into account that our lot's <br />depth averages less than 130 ft. According to the City's Assessment Policy, a lot <br />with an average depth less than 130 ft. is classified as a "shallow lot". A shallow <br />lot's footage calculation uses a specific formula to determine assessment footage, <br />which differs from the fommla used by the City's staff <br /> <br />BackgrolUld: The parcel at 1226 Ingerson Rd is an lUldersized, irregular, and <br />triangular shaped lot located at the intersection ofIngerson Rd and Ingerson Ct. <br /> <br />1226 Ingerson = 9,697 sq ft. <br />b,,, <br />""c, <br /> <br />II> <br />... <br />g <br />... <br />II <br />i <br />= <br /> <br /> <br />Ingerson Rd <br /> <br />· sq. ft. from City's March 7, 2003 letter <br />
