An appraisal review process is required any time the fair market value determined by the City’s appraiser and the fair market value determined by the property owner’s appraiser are so far apart as to have a negative impact effect on negotiations.The manual also describes how an appraisal review is conducted:
The review appraiser will review the City’s and property owner’s appraisers’ computations, the nature and quality of the interest being appraised, deeds or option contracts when provided, size, maps, legal descriptions or construction plans when applicable. The review appraiser must: evaluate the City’s and owner’s appraisers’ qualifications; identify any legal matters needing resolution; study the information, data and analyses presented for qualitative and quantitative adequacy; and determine whether the appraisal reports conform to law, regulations....And here's the rest of the description of what the appraisal reviewer, in this case Muegge and Associations, Inc., will look at:

a. Recommended. The recommended appraisal shall be used to establish the fair market value for the transaction.
b. Acceptable. An acceptable appraisal meets all technical requirements, but should not be used to establish fair market value.

If the review appraiser is unable to identify an appraisal as “recommended”, as an adequate basis for the establishment of the fair market value, the City may obtain another appraisal or ask the review appraiser to present and analyze market information in conformity with 49 C.F.R. § 24.103 and USPAP Standard 3 to determine fair market value.
