Waller J Kassuba filed two suits in Linn district court appealing the 1969 assessment of his apartment at 2060 Glass Road NE. The petition claims the $1,700,382 actual value is far too high and cites sharp market saturation, depreciation from poor original construction, rising maintenance costs, lower occupancy, and higher projected losses than 1968. The suits allege the assessor and board of review failed to reflect fair market value and that the assessment is inequitable compared with similar properties.
