evidence. Assessment Appeals Boards may not base any factual determinations necessary for their decisions on
anything other than the aforementioned evidence. Information presented through public comment, unless property
admitted into evidence in compliance with the Revenue and Taxation code and the Property Tax Rules of the State
Board of Equalization, is not evidence upon which Assessment Appeals Boards may base findings.

Each item on the Agenda may include the following documents: (1) An Application for Changed Assessment (2)
Comparable Sale Information (3) Department or Agency Correspondence (4) Public Correspondence.
Public comment will be taken for items on the agenda, as well as items not on the agenda but under the jurisdiction
