YesWas this addition disclosed and included in the appraisal documents, when you applied for the mortgage??? Yes. I bought the house at 1356sf.It would also have been included in the property boundry survey required by the bank for mortgage. Did this additional square footage show as living area on estimated tax value?? I'm 99.99% sure it did prior to this year. Now when I look at the Property Appraisers website, it shows less sq footage for the house since they took away the enclosed carport (250sf).

I guess if it went to court, the court could place something, but I don't believe we had any way of doing that. It could be different from place to place.I don't think the notice I got was for an actual court hearing. I think it's a meeting of some sort of commission where they decide what fines to impose.I definitely intend on appearing with my purchase documentation. Notices were sent out, but they were all prior to the date I moved in (June 2005), so I'm assuming they were either returned or the previous owner got them.(I know they were sent because they list the dates on the letter I received)
