Weitsman tax abatement sparks district concerns in New Castle
Ambrosini says back taxes on the property were exonerated by the school district city and county after Weitsman purchased it and notes a May article in the New Castle News where Adam Weitsman CEO of Upstate Shredding Weitsman Recycling said no government help was sought for the project. Donnelly explains no funding or tax breaks were used for the facility but notes a tax abatement program was presented and considered. The assessor notes abatements attract investment and Ben Weitsman’s request will go to the Lawrence County Board of Assessment Appeals in September for review and then to other taxing bodies for approval.
