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.

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
of the Board. Each member of the public
will be allotted the same number of minutes to speak to the Board. The Board
may limit the total testimony to 30 minutes.
