The written appeal shall detail the factual basis for the request to be excluded from the BID and from the special assessment provisions of this chapter.
(B) Upon receipt of a written appeal, the Tax Assessor shall investigate the matter and conduct an informal hearing or conference within 30 days of receipt of the appeal. Within ten days after the conclusion of the informal hearing or conference, the Tax Assessor shall file a report and recommendation with the Advisory Board and the governing body. The governing body shall review the report and act upon the request to be excluded within 30 days of receipt of the Tax Assessor’s report.
