Brandon Stokes requested the Board cancel the late fees and interest charged on his five parcels.

the tax bill had been sent to the wrong address, however the reminder was delivered to the correct 
address.  Mr. Stokes provided documentation that he did update his address with the Assessor’s 
Office, but when he did not receive his tax bill, he missed the date.  Becky Petersen, Treasurer

generally pays on time and reminded Mr. Stokes that the reminder was a courtesy and not a

and noted the funds are dispersed depending on the election selected by the Board.  The form is

make the full allocation to Title 1.

Commissioner Reinke swore in Rebecca Quiocho, Appellant, Bradford Wills, Assessor and Larry 
Barksdale, Appraisal Supervisor. 
 
Rebecca Quiocho reviewed the packet of information that she provided.  Ms. Quiocho disputed 
being taxed for approximately 9000 sq feet of property that she is unable to use.  The property is 
managed by the association and used for a greenbelt area that is not being maintained by the 
association.  Ms. Quiocho requested an adjustment be made to the assessment reducing the land 
value for the amount of land that is unusable and set a new land value at $88,311.00. Ms. Quiocho

that is managed by the HOA. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor and Larry Barksdale, Assessor’s Staff reviewed the property and the 
assessment of the property and the packet of information provided by the Assessor’s Office.  Mr. 
Barksdale reviewed the assessment history on the property and the comparables used to determine

Commissioner Reinke swore in Frank Lima for Magic Valley Newspapers. 
 
Frank Lima, reviewed the packet of information provided on behalf of Magic Valley Newspapers.  
Mr. Lima noted that two of the properties on Main St. will be auctioned with opening bids of 
$7,500.00 for 361 Main Ave W. and $150,000.00 for 319 Main Ave W. which includes a parking 
lot.  The 319 Main Ave. W property is unusable as the roof is severely damaged.  132 Fairfield 
also has a printing press inside which would be costly to remove prior to selling the building.  The

properties are distressed and Mr. Lima requested the Board consider that and adjust the values 
accordingly. 
 
Commissioner Matthews disclosed that his sister works for the Times News which is currently 
housed in one of the appealed properties.  Commissioner Matthews stated that he felt he could be 
objective in the discussion and consideration of the appeal. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor reviewed the property and noted that all three properties were appealed to 
the State BTA.  Of the property values set by the Assessor for 2025, two were affirmed by the 
BTA with one receiving a reduction. BTA decisions are bound for two years.  
 
Mr. Lima stated that the land was valued as one parcel with the buildings assessed separately which 
was incorrect.  Mr. Lima stated that the destruction costs of the buildings make the land have a 
negative value. 
 
Larry Barksdale reviewed the properties and the use of each building as well as the Assessor’s 
packet of information for each property.  Mr. Barksdale noted that the property located at 132 
Fairfield was adjusted by the State BTA to account for the printing press for a total value of 
$155,5137.00.  Mr. Lima is requesting an approximately 18% reduction in value for the Fairfield 
property.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the Main Ave properties and packets and noted that the BTA 
upheld the values from 2025.  The properties on Main Street are currently under auction with a 
closed auction company which requires preregistration and proof of funds prior to bidding. 
 
Mr. Lima stated that the buildings are distressed and unusable and asked the Board to consider that 
in their decision.  Mr. Lima stated that the property owner told him that the Main St. properties 
were condemned.  Commissioner Hawkins noted that the auction documents did not disclose that 
the buildings had been condemned. 
 
Commissioner Matthews made a MOTION to take the information under consideration and issue 
a decision on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 13, 2026.  Commissioner Hawkins SECONDED.  
Discussion Commissioner Matthews noted that he would like more time to review the information.  
Motion passed unanimously. 
  
Behchet & Emine Rasim   RPT59030030210A 
 
Commissioner Reinke swore in Behchet & Emine Rasim, Appellants. 
 
Emine Rasim reviewed the property and noted the home was older and had depreciated in value.  
The windows need replaced, flooring issues, twelve cracks in the foundation and multiple other 
issues.  Ms. Rasim noted that the furnace was original to the home and the condition should be 
considered and it could not be sold for the assessed value based upon the condition issues.  The 
Rasim’s have owned the home since it was built in 1997. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor reviewed the property and noted the process is an external inspection only.  
Mr. Wills noted that furnace and windows are costly and he would be agreeable to decreasing the 
value to what Mr. Rasim is requesting based upon the condition.  Commissioner Matthews noted

that he would agree with the improvement value being decreased but leaving the land value as the 
condition of the home does not affect the land value.  Commissioner Hawkins noted that the 
homeowner has neglected the maintenance of the property which the homeowner should have been 
doing.  Mr. Rasim noted that the property was rented from 2008 – 2017 which caused damage to 
the home.  Ms. Rasim stated that they are on a limited income and keeping up on the repairs has 
been difficult.  Mr. Rasim stated that he would be supportive of the Assessor’s agreement of 
$77,250.00 for the land and $220,000.00 for the home for a total value of $297,250.00.  Mr. Rasim 
stated that part of his lot is unusable due to a right of way on the property.  Mr. Wills noted that 
the lot is valued accordingly and that information was considered in the assessment. 
 
Commissioner Hawkins noted that the Assessor has already depreciated the property by 29% and 
valued it as a fair condition which accounted for the maintenance issues.  Mr. Wills agreed that 
the property had already been reduced for the condition.  Commissioner Hawkins stated that after 
looking at the information it appears that the condition was already considered.  Commissioner 
Matthews asked for clarification on the condition rating.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the condition 
ratings with the Board.  Mr. Wills noted that he generally makes concessions with property owners 
when they are close in their opinions of value. 
 
Commissioner Hawkins made a MOTION to take the information under consideration and issue a 
decision on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 13, 2026.  Commissioner Matthews SECONDED.  Motion 
passed unanimously. 
 
Wesley Benjamin & Sophie Chatelain Benjamin   RPO75510010050A 
 
Commissioner Reinke swore in Sophie Benjamin. 
 
Sophie Benjamin spoke with the Board and reviewed the property and her concerns with the 
assessed value.  Ms. Benjamin reviewed the property and noted that the interior is unfinished and 
a significant amount of the home is unusable.  Ms. Benjamin stated that she felt the value of the 
home should be $780,000.00 based upon the incomplete construction.  Ms. Benjamin provided 
property listings that she felt were comparable to her home.  There was discussion on the portion 
of the property that was complete.  The property owner is doing the interior construction 
themselves and the entire upstairs is unfinished with the closets on the main floor unfinished as 
well.  Some portions of the upstairs have flooring and sheetrock. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor reviewed the location of the property and noted that based upon the 
occupancy permit, the Assessor valued the property as complete on January 1, 2026.  Larry 
Barksdale, Appraisal Supervisor reviewed the assessment and the process used to value the 
property.  Commissioner Matthews noted that the comparable properties are fully constructed.  Mr. 
Barksdale noted that the remaining work is cosmetic work and the property is substantially 
complete and would be valued at $1,738,712, however it is currently valued at $1,514,652.00. Mr. 
Barksdale noted there is 1,789 sq feet on the 2nd floor.  Ms. Benjamin disputed the square footage 
listed by the Assessor.  Mr. Wills reviewed the process of determining square footage which is 
based upon measuring the outside walls.

Ms. Benjamin noted that they have not expended half of the assessed value in costs for building 
the home.  Mr. Barksdale noted they must use sale price not cost of building.  There was discussion 
on the cost of building versus sale prices.  Ms. Benjamin noted that her home is not a luxury home 
and should not be compared with other luxury homes.   
 
Commissioner Matthews made a MOTION to take the information under consideration and issue 
a decision on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 13, 2026.  Commissioner Hawkins SECONDED.  Motion 
passed unanimously. 
 
Blue Lakes Properties LLC. RPT1701000004CA 
CRC PROPERTY HOLDINGS, LLC RPT00107146022A 
 
Matt Cook participated via conference call. 
 
Commissioner Reinke swore in Matt Cook, Appellant and Andrew Humphries, Appraiser. 
 
Blue Lakes Properties LLC. RPT1701000004CA 
 
Mr. Cook reviewed the packet of information that he provided.  Mr. Cook noted that the Assessor 
increased the value of the property approximately 23%.  Mr. Cook disputed the heating and cooling 
assessment as well as the condition of the property and the land value compared to other 
dealerships.  Mr. Cook asked the Board to review the assessment and adjust the values to compare 
with other like properties. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor, Andrew Humphries, Appraiser and Larry Barksdale, Appraisal Supervisor 
reviewed the property assessment.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the changes made to the appraisal from 
the first 2026 appraisal as well as the use which decreased the value from the initial 2026 
assessment.   There was discussion on the original estimate of value submitted by the Appellant 
vs the updated information presented by Mr. Cook.  Mr. Cook stated that the comparables provided 
by the Assessor is an incomplete list. Mr. Cook noted that his property has been valued incorrectly 
for several years and based upon that, he dug into it further and found multiple inconsistencies that 
need addressed.  
 
Mr. Barksdale noted that land value is based upon economy of scale which decreases the value of 
an acre the more acres that are included in a property and is part of the process based upon Marshall 
and Swift. 
 
CRC PROPERTY HOLDINGS, LLC RPT00107146022A 
Mr. Cook reviewed the property with the Board and noted that there are corrections that need to 
be made to include depreciation which should be comparable to other dealerships amounts of 
depreciation, square footage, the mezzanine rate and the sprinkler system rate. 
 
Mr. Wills noted that without being able to go through Mr. Cooks points of concern and the values 
of the properties Mr. Cook compared, he is unable to make a recommendation for a change.  There 
was discussion on the Assessor reconsidering the information presented by Mr. Cook and 
providing the Board with a recommendation before close of BOE.  Mr. Cook asked the Board to

err on his side, use his numbers for the appraisal and then allow the Assessor to make their 
corrections next year as they discussed. 
 
Mr. Barksdale reviewed the Assessor’s packet of information and the process used to value the 
property and the assessment increase from 2025 to 2026.  Mr. Barksdale noted that in 2025 an 
additional portion of the building was not on the appraisal so that was added to the 2026 assessment 
which accounted for the increase. 
 
Commissioner Matthews requested that the Assessor review the information presented and provide 
the Board with further information.  Mr. Wills noted that he will attempt to get the information to 
Mr. Cook by Friday end of business, if not first thing Monday morning. 
 
Commissioner Hawkins made a MOTION to take the information under consideration and issue a 
decision on or before 5:00 p.m. on July 13, 2026.  Commissioner Matthews SECONDED.  Motion 
passed unanimously.

An Arabic interpreter was provided by the County through Propio via a conference call.  Ms. 
Hashim stated she does not understand the proceeding.  Commissioner Reinke explained the 
process for the interpreter. 
 
Ms. Hashim spoke through the interpreter and explained her request.  Ms. Hashim stated that her 
husband is in Iraq and being treated for cancer.  Ms. Hashim went to Iraq with her son and was 
unable to return in time to file her application for a circuit breaker due to the war. Ms. Hashim 
stated she was informed that she needed to submit bills, etc. for the home which she did.  Ms.

Ms. Hashim stated that her son has Down Syndrome which takes her time to care for him.  
Commissioner Hawkins asked Ms. Hashim if she could provide any information on income for 
her husband.  Ms. Hashim stated that her husband is over 70 years old and is retired and unable to 
work due to his illness.  Ms. Hashim stated that she does not work and a neighbor brought her to 
the hearing.  Commissioner Hawkins noted that there were no documents provided other than the

Larry Barksdale, Appraisal Supervisor, Brad Wills, Assessor, Sherri Roche, Appellant. 
 
Sherri Roche   RP09S15E086602A 
 
Sherri Roche reviewed her property and her concerns with the assessed value.  Ms. Roche noted 
that she was requesting equal treatment and a consistent assessment with her neighbor’s properties.  
Ms. Roche reviewed her neighbor’s properties and the percentages of increase and disputed that 
her property was being assessed the same way as her neighbor’s homes.  Ms. Roche noted that her 
property condition was changed from fair to average, however there have been no changes and her 
roof is deteriorating.  Ms. Roche reviewed several pictures showing her property, the condition 
and the use of the property.  Ms. Roche stated that her property is increasing when her neighbor’s 
properties are decreasing in value.   
 
Brad Wills, Assessor, noted that they do not select a specific property to pick on.  Mr. Wills noted 
that the previous designation of fair did not seem appropriate so it was changed to average which 
was consistent with neighboring properties.  Mr. Wills reviewed the points that Ms. Roche noted 
specifically, the road and the homesite property.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the Assessor’s packet of 
information and noted that there was another structure with living quarters which is not found on 
the neighboring properties.  The appraisal done by the Assessor’s office has been consistent, 
however there were BOE and BTA adjustments made a couple of times over the years.  Mr. 
Barksdale noted that the assessed price per square foot for Ms. Roche’s home is below average.  
Mr. Barksdale noted that they did make adjustments for the waste ground.  Market value for the 
property would be $1,085,573 with a current assessment of $869,859.00. 
 
Ms. Roche noted that the surrounding properties assessments stayed flat and hers has increased 
and requested that the assessed condition of the home be returned to fair.  There was discussion on

Matt Cook, Appellant, Larry Barksdale, Appraisal Supervisor, Brad Wills, Assessor. 
 
Mr. Cook noted that the Assessor’s personnel reviewed the properties which resulted in a change, 
however there were a couple of items that he felt were not addressed by the Assessor.  Mr. Cook 
provided a package of information which he reviewed with the Board.  There is still a large portion 
of the building that was not remodeled and he felt that the effective age should be adjusted to 
reflect that.  Mr. Cook noted that the location was significantly higher than other dealership 
properties’ assessments. 
 
Brad Wills, Assessor reviewed the information provided by Mr. Cook and discussed the 
differences between the information provided by Mr. Cook and the Assessor’s Office.  Larry 
Barksdale noted that the Assessor’s Office did find items that needed adjustment after their 
inspection.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the process used by the Assessor’s Office to reflect effective 
age.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed a chart that he prepared comparing land for other dealerships if they

were the same size as the appealed properties.  Mr. Barksdale reviewed the Mazda property 
assessment and noted that the value that had previously been added for the mezzanine was 
removed.  Mr. Barksdale also reviewed the changes made to the Blue Lakes property. 
 
Mr. Cook stated that he was trying to get to a uniform process for both properties compared to 
other dealerships.  Mr. Cook reviewed the Blue Lakes Property and noted that he felt there were 
some calculations that should be corrected such as the HVAC and the effective age. 
 
Commissioner Matthews stated that he is having difficulty in understanding the depreciation 
discussion.  Mr. Wills stated that with the concerns that Mr. Cook has he may want to appeal to 
the State Board of Tax appeals.
