The form records the date of the request, the property owner's name, the property address, a contact name and number, the parcel number, who the refund is issued to, the refund amount and the reason for the request. It ends with a signature line. The attached instructions add that the owner's phone number and email address are part of the contact information and that each request form covers one parcel only.
