The owners of the Chautauqua Harbor Hotel are suing the Town of Ellicott after their assessment increased 194-percent on their property in Celoron.
The lawsuit in Chautauqua County Supreme Court states the increased assessment is excessive and illegal. The lawsuit has the assessed value at $8.5 million with the tentative assessed value at $25 million.
Chautauqua Harbor Hotel LLC is asking the courts rule to reduce the assessment to the true, real market value.
