Grant County commissioners approve several tax abatements, table one request
Summary
On April 17, commissioners approved multiple tax abatements, including a 100% Homestead Credit for parcel 17477600 and clerical-error corrections for parcel 62092600; they tabled an abatement request for parcel 62110700 pending additional information.
The Grant County Commissioners approved multiple property tax abatements at their April 17 meeting, and tabled one request pending further information.
Commissioner Meyer moved to approve a 2023 abatement for 100% Homestead Credit on parcel 17477600; Commissioner Al Roy Hochhalter seconded and the motion passed unanimously. A clerical‑error abatement for parcel 62092600 was approved after county records showed the structure’s listed value for 2023 as $144,400 whereas the assessment information via Vanguard Appraisal reflected an assessed value of $14,400; the City of New Leipzig had approved that abatement prior to the county vote.
An abatement application for parcel 62110700 (Lot 1, Block 1, Rolling Hills Addition, New Leipzig) requesting a reduction from $7,600 to $3,800 was tabled so the Tax Director could provide more information; Commissioner Hochhalter specifically questioned why a similar lot would not be reduced. The board also approved farm residence exemption abatements for parcel 18460500 for both 2022 and 2023 after staff said the structure value had been listed on the incorrect parcel.
The minutes show these actions were recorded as motions with unanimous roll call votes where recorded.
