Rockwell Tax Debate Over Rocky Flats Plant Taxation
U S officials dispute local tax authority on Rocky Flats in Golden Colorado where Rockwell International would owe about six million dollars in property taxes. The government argues tax exemption may not apply to private business property used for profit. A county assessor could face a court challenge if tax is pursued. Rockwell estimates the plant yields two million dollars in annual government profit, while officials note the arrangement is unique.
