49T10-1502-TA-6
Tax. Affirms the final determination by the Indiana Board of Tax Review to reclassify 2.72 acres of the Chavezes’ land from excess residential to agricultural for the 2013 tax year.

The Indiana Board did not act contrary to law when it analyzed these very factors to determine that the Chavezes’ 2.72 acres were devoted to an agricultural use.
