Assessments must be based on market value adjusted by the level assessment in each municipality. In the Board's experience, once the appeal is filed the parties do not meet until a hearing has been scheduled. Many times the differences between the parties can be resolved through informal negotiations without requiring a hearing. The Board issues a Report of Settlement Meeting & Order prior to scheduling the hearing, which encourages the parties to meet and attempt to settle the matter.
