Property tax assessment

Bonstores Realty Two, LLC and J.C. Penney Company, Inc. (collectively appellants) appeal from an order affirming the City of Racine Board of Review’s decision upholding the city assessor’s valuation of the Boston Store and Penney store in the Regency Mall for the 2008 tax assessment. The appellants argue that the Board arbitrarily disregarded their evidence rebutting the presumption of accuracy and then acted contrary to law by not holding the assessor to the proper burden of proof to support the assessment. We conclude that the appellants did not meet their initial burden of producing evidence that the assessment is incorrect or unlawful. We affirm the order of the circuit court. This opinion will not be published.
