Attorney: Leaf Spring project not subject to Lyndon property tax; commissioners note proposed day care and pending resignation
Summary
City Attorney Stephen Porter told the commission that the Leaf Spring project carries no property-tax obligation for the City of Lyndon, though any occupational tax would apply to employees; the commission also heard of a proposed day care on New Lagrange Road and recorded Commissioner Cindy Oppel’s pending resignation effective at year-end.
In new-business items at the Nov. 10 meeting, City Attorney Stephen Porter said Cliff Ashburner requested an in-person meeting with Porter and Mayor James Martin. Porter advised that the Leaf Spring project would not generate property taxes for the City of Lyndon; he said the occupational tax would apply to employees who work at the Leaf Spring site.
Porter also noted a proposed day care center on New Lagrange Road near Lyndon City Hall, adjacent to the Waldorf School; details about the developer, capacity, and permit status were not specified in the minutes. The commission recorded a pending resignation by Commissioner Cindy Oppel; the minutes state she will remain a resident until the end of the year.
No formal votes or rezonings were recorded on the Leaf Spring matter or the proposed day care during this meeting; the attorney’s remarks were entered for follow-up and any necessary future action.
