I believe Mr. Sitko and Deputy Director Sako are in Hilo. MS. POINDEXTER: Lisa is here. MS. DAVID: Oh, Lisa. Sorry, please come forward, Lisa. (Note: At this time Real Property Tax Administrator Stan Sitko and Assistant Real Property Tax Administrator Lisa Miura came forward to address the members of the Council.) MS. POINDEXTER: And Deanna just walked in as well. MS. DAVID: Okay. Well, would you give us just a brief description of this software? MR. SITKO: Stan Sitko, Real Property Tax Administrator. The software is well basically, this is the hard copy of the software. What it allows us to do is to value all real property using the cost approach. Up until 2012, we used to do engineering studies in conjunction with the City and County of Honolulu. However, at that point the engineering firm stopped bidding and we had to go and find other sources for cost data. Three years ago we entered into an agreement with Marshall and Swift. All four counties are involved in Marshall and Swift is the premier cost provider in the country. Many jurisdictions use their data also. Although we are one of the few that has specific data done for us. specific questions here that I can answer. It does MS. DAVID: Thank you. So is this connected to real property assessments and valuing, that sort of thing, Mr. Sitko? MR. SITKO: Exactly. It is the basis of our cost approach. Basically, when we value most of our properties on the island, we rebuild them. We value what it would cost to buy the land, then build the structure, then depreciate it down. MS. DAVID: Wow, okay. I think I yield for other Council Members if they have questions. Page 26 -11 May 3, 2017 CHR. O'HARA: I have a question. ACTING CHR. EOFF CHR. O'HARA: You referred to specifics. That we have this software customized MR. SITKO: Among other things, we have to deal with some unique property types that we have here. We have a lot of post and pier properties on the islands, product is usable across allthe entire State; however, it is broken down into Kona, Hilo and various other subsections with indexing. Other things that are considered, unlike the main manual that they sell to most appraisers, fee appraisers, this one actually has all the adjustments needed already built into the numbers so that our people can just basically open it up, go find the appropriate structure, and value it. The software part of it is that they have adjusted their system and they have something called the MVP process, where they take our data from our database, process it, and give us back the costs by hand, but they do the actual calculations. CHR. O'HARA our assessments lag behind, what, like a year and a half or so? Is this going to bring us a more closer to real time value, or not? MR. SITKO: Just by the nature of the beast, we are always going to be one year behind. For instance, for this upcoming tax year, for the 2017-18 fiscal year, we st had to finish valuing all the land and the buildings by December 31 actually CHR. O'HARA: 2016. MR. SITKO: Yes. CHR. O'HARA: Okay. MR. SITKO have to set the values, give them to you, you have to then approve them. CHR. O'HARA: Okay, thank you. ACTING CHR. EOFF: Okay, thank you. Mr. Chung.

But thank you, Stan, for your answers. ACTING CHR. EOFF: Mr. Richards. MR. RICHARDS Mr. Sitko, Ms. Miura, or Ms. Sako. Concerning the different levels or changing in installment payment, I was looking for some consistency there. But it seems to vary between about two percent and five percent. Are there other services that are being offered? Or why the discrepancy in that? MR. SITKO: here and started this compilation. For the first four years, or three years, of the -do everything. And part of our negotiation was to, rather than have the fourth year double the value of everything else, they built in this steady increase so that we would not be slammed in one year for the full revaluation as well as the indexing and the use of the software. MR. RICHARDS: Okay. Thank you, Chair. I yield. ACTING CHR. EOFF: Thank you. Any other questions, Council Members, or comments? Anyone in Hilo? Mr. Sitko or Ms. Miura, did you have anything more to add, or? MS. MIURA: Lisa Miura, Assistant Administrator at the Real Property Tax. I think we just wanted to acknowledge that we realize the cost does appear to be very high. Marshall and Swift is something that I believe would help to make things more transparent. And it is documented, because right now what we were getting from the City and County was pretty much just built into our tables, and at. Marshall and Swift is also recognized by the industry, so fee appraisers are very well versed with it and their numbers do stand up in court. Right now the numbers that we do have from the City and ant thing especially as we go forward with our Board of Reviews and our Tax Appeal Court process. ACTING CHR. EOFF: Thank you.
