God’s Museum asks Floyd County assessors for property tax exemption
Summary
Mary Holcombe, representing God’s Museum of Fine Collections, asked the Floyd County Board of Assessors on March 11 for a property tax exemption and was asked by staff to submit a written plan and documentation for further review, including possible county attorney review.
Mary Holcombe, representing God’s Museum of Fine Collections, told the Floyd County Board of Assessors at a March 11 meeting that the organization seeks a property tax exemption and outlined the property’s acquisition, the museum’s purpose and a plan for operations and overcoming obstacles.
Chief Appraiser Danny Womack asked Holcombe to "submit a letter outlining the exempt organizations’ plans, the purpose of the exempt organization, the reasons that they believe they qualify for the exemption," and reviewed avenues for the request to receive further review, including review by the county attorney if needed. The board reiterated that it required additional documentation before making a determination.
Chairman Peter Jordan thanked Holcombe for attending and asked that the requested materials be provided so the board and staff could continue their review. No formal vote on the exemption request was taken at the March 11 meeting; the matter remains pending further documentation and potential legal review.
