Stith
THE DALLES - Graveside
services were held May 11 at
the High View Cemetery,
lone, for Anna Rietmann
Stith, 94, The Dalles. Mrs.
Stith died May 7, 1981, at a
nursing home at The Dalles.
She was born Feb. 5, 1887, at
lone. She was married to
Joseph L. Stith on March 10.
1910. They lived for a time at
Bridal Veil before moving to
the Boise, Idaho area where
they farmed for many years.
After her husband died in 1970.
Mrs. Stith moved to The
Dalles to be near relatives.
She was a member of the
Seventh-day Adventist
Church.
Survivors include a sister,
Mrs. Alice Peterson. The
Dalles; a brother. Robert
"Rietmann, La Ha bra. Calif.,
and several nieces and neph
ews. Spencer. Libby & Powell
Funeral Home, The Dalles,
was in charge of arrangements.
Owners who feel their prop
erty has been overvalued have
the right to appeal.
There are several steps in
the appeal process, says
Robyn L. Godwin, director of
the Oregon Department of
Revenue. The first step is an
appeal to the county board of
equialization.
If unsuccessful, that may be
followed by appeals to the
revenue department and then
to the Oregon Tax Court and
Oregon Supreme Court. In
certain cases, the owner may
appeal to the Small Claims
Division of the Oregon Tax
Court instead of the revenue
department.
In any appeal. Godwin says,
the key issue is the market
value of the property. Many
people mistakenly believe
they can appeal the amount of
tax levied on their property.
Boards of equalization
began hearing appeals on
non-residential properties
May 11.
Appeal forms are available
from county clerks and county
assessors.
A free information circular,
published by the Oregon
Department of Revenue, ex
plains the appeals process in
more detail. The circular.
"Property Value Appeal Pro
cedure," is available from
most county assessors or by
writing to: Publications. Ore
