The new amount is $5600. That is after the new asking price reduction.
Looking at the homes on Roycroft, the commissioners appealed six (6) homes for this year. They appealed two last year.
2014 Mt. Lebo Appeals
1. 25 Roycroft based on 2007 sale
2. 51 Roycroft
3. 55 Roycroft
4. 65 Roycroft based on 2006 sale
5. 73 Roycroft
6. 80 Roycroft based on 2008 sale
2013 Mt. Lebo Appeals
1. 30 Roycroft increased to sale price of $560000
2. 56 Roycroft increased to sale price of $427000
Here's the kicker. Remember this anti-turf sign destroyed on Roycroft?

It was ripped out of the yard of one of the homes that the commissioners appealed. The Roycroft Block Party will be very interesting this year. Write the damn check, Kristen.
Update May 27, 2014 7:51 AM Not everyone can avoid writing the check, so Mike Suley, former manager of Allegheny County’s Office of Property Assessments, former member of the county’s Board of Property Assessment, Appeals and Review, and Lebo Citizens reader, offers this solution in his Post-Gazette Letter to the Editor, Overassessed homeowners should pay taxes under protest.
