Council to meet county auditor after concerns that HPM site may be underassessed
Summary
Council members raised concerns that the HPM property is marketed at $4 million but assessed at $400,000; a council member said they will meet with the county auditor to determine whether the property is taxed fairly and councilors offered to accompany them.
Council members discussed whether the owner of the HPM site is paying a fair share of property tax. A member reported that the site is advertised on the market for $4 million while the property appears to be taxed at $400,000.
The member said they will meet with the county auditor to examine the assessment and determine what is appropriate. Other council members volunteered to join that meeting. No formal council directive or vote was taken; the action is investigatory and intended to clarify assessment methodology and any options the village may have.
Next steps: The council member will meet with the county auditor and report back to the council; the village may pursue further steps depending on the auditorE28099s guidance.
