Parking lot tax dispute prompts meeting with county
The City Parking Authority seeks a meeting with county commissioners to resolve a tax issue on the Towne Mall lot. At a February meeting, commissioners voted 2 to 0 to collect a $4,003.48 property tax for three years, with one abstention. The authority argues the land is tax exempt as its owner is a municipal entity, while commissioners say proof is lacking. The lot serves Towne Mall, owned by Arcon Development Corp, which pays a monthly fee to the Authority to fund a $610,000 bond for construction and operation.
