The Courier Journal reports Bevin's attorney filed an appeal of the $2.9 million valuation on Tuesday. That value set by an outside appraiser for the Jefferson County Property Valuation Administrator's office last month is $1.3 million higher than a company owned by Bevin paid for it in March 2017, purchasing it from friend and political donor Neil Ramsey.
Bevin's attorney Mark Sommer says the property hasn't been materially improved since the Board of Assessment Appeals accepted Bevin's own appraiser's valuation of $1.4 million last year following public hearings.
