Resident asks whether Tapadero Solar Project will lower Young County property taxes
Summary
During public comment Charlotte King said the Tapadero Solar Project pilot would bring roughly $1.1 million per year and asked whether commissioners would cut the county tax rate; commissioners said the project is not guaranteed and that any tax impact depends on future valuations and state actions.
Charlotte King, a member of the public who signed up to speak, asked the court whether the Tapadero Solar Project pilot — which she said would bring 'about 1,100,000.0 per year for the next 10 years' — would prompt commissioners to reduce county property taxes by $1,000,000 and whether residents would see a property tax reduction.
Commissioners responded that the county does not yet know if the solar farm will be built, that it could be years before a final decision, and that state appraisal rules and other variables will affect any county tax impact. One commissioner said, 'We won't know the answer...for a couple of years.' No formal action or commitment was made.
