9.    Assessor

 9.A   For Possible Action: To approve the partial removal and refund of the 2018/19 Real Property Taxes for parcel number 009-197-02 (150 E Roland St.) in the amount of $10,878.32 (refund of $1,545.32) per NRS 361.125. (Dave Dawley, ddawley@carson.org)

Staff Summary:  Assessor's parcel number 009-197-02 located at 150 E. Roland St. had previously been rented to another church which vacated the property in July of 2017.  The property remained vacant until August 15, 2018 at which time the property owner, Lake Tahoe Christian Fellowship began to have mid-week services. The Assessor’s Office is asking for the 2018/19 Real Property Taxes be pro-rated from July 1, 2018 to August 15, 2018.  This would reduce the current 2018/19 tax bill from $12,446.98 to $1,568.66 (removing $10,878.32).  The owner has paid the first installment amount of $3,113.98, so a refund of $1,545.32 is requested as well.
