The Board of County Commissioners of Johnson County (Board) has appealed from an order of the district court which affirmed an order of the state board of tax appeals (BOTA) granting certain ad valorem tax relief to the property owner J.A. Peterson Company (JAP).

The proceedings before the BOTA, which included appeals from the Johnson County Board of Equalization and direct protests, were consolidated for hearing. The Johnson County Board of Equalization had affirmed the property appraisals of the county appraiser, leading to the appeals and protests by JAP. The BOTA granted an 8% reduction in the appraisal values of the three apartment complexes based upon the functional obsolescence of their total energy plants and a 10% reduction in the shopping center appraisal value based upon a "location adjustment" or location depreciation due to the poor geographic location and accessibility of the center. Upon appeal to the district court, the order of the BOTA was upheld in its entirety, leading to this appeal by the Board.
