  • In 2011, 25.5% of the grievances were approved as compared to 26.1% in 2010
  • The total amount of the reduction in the assessed value was $619,625 in 2011 versus $774,545 in 2010.
  • Using the Residential Assessment Ratio (RAR) of 1.76%, that means that Scarsdale lost $1,363,234 in assessed value in 2010 and an additional $1,090,540 in 2011.
