Board approves $16,970 tax abatement for Traditions of La Crescent LLC after building fire
Summary
The board approved a $16,970 tax abatement for Traditions of La Crescent LLC for 2025 payable taxes after firefighters destroyed the building in October 2024; assessor staff explained the credit corrects duplicate abatements approved for 2024.
The County Board of Commissioners approved a 2025 tax abatement of $16,970 for Traditions of La Crescent LLC after staff said the building was destroyed by fire in October 2024.
Assessor staff and county staff explained the abatement corrects a previous error: two separate two‑month abatements for 2024 payable taxes had been approved in error. "Right, kind of like, Carol said, the abatement was for 2 months, for 2024 payable taxes. That evidently got approved twice, sort of by accident, I guess. So we are looking to approve a credit for 2025, payable taxes. And the amount on that is for the 16,970," a county speaker said on the record.
A motion to approve the abatement was made, seconded and carried on a voice vote. The assessor's office was present during the discussion to confirm the property status; the property remains an empty lot, staff said.
