SHARON K. STEWART, Plaintiff, v. LANE COUNTY ASSESSOR, Defendant.
UNPUBLISHED OPINION
This Final Decision incorporates without change the court's Decision, entered July 13, 2017. The court did not receive a statement of costs and disbursements within 14 days after its Decision was entered. See Tax Court Rule-Magistrate Division (TCR-MD) 16 C(1).
Plaintiff appealed the real market value of a strip of undeveloped land for tax years 2014-15, 2015-16, and 2016-17. By order dated May 26, 2017, and incorporated herein, the court set trial on the 2016-17 tax year and dismissed the former two tax years for lack of jurisdiction. The day before trial was to be held, Defendant filed the parties' joint request to place this case in abeyance pending the outcome of a petition to the Department of Revenue to correct the 2014-15 and 2015-16 tax rolls using its supervisory authority under ORS 306.115.
The parties appeared by telephone at the time set for trial and agreed that the 2016-17 real market value of the subject property was $7, 284. Because the parties' stipulation resolved the only remaining issue, the court denied the parties' motion for abeyance. Now, therefore, IT IS THE DECISION OF THIS COURT that the 2016-17 real market value of the property identified as Account 1859899 was $7, 284.
