Commission forgives interest and penalty for unpaid taxes on a Deweyville lot
Summary
After a public comment from a resident who said escrow had not been set up for a Deweyville building lot, the commission approved forgiving interest and penalty on parcel 05-152-0064 (Jordan Euler) while leaving the principal tax obligation intact.
A resident seeking relief told commissioners he recently discovered unpaid property taxes on a Deweyville building lot and asked that the commission waive the interest and penalty because no escrow account had been set up by the lender. He recited the amounts: "Taxes due as of 2 days ago was $7,085.90. Interest, $1,244.66. Penalty, $177.15," and asked the commission to forgive the interest and penalty portion.
Commissioners discussed how tax notices are assigned based on the warranty deed address and questioned how the notices were mailed. Commissioner Bingham moved to forgive the penalty and interest for parcel 05-152-0064 (Jordan Euler); Commissioner Perry seconded, and the motion passed with all commissioners voting "Aye." The resident indicated he will pay the outstanding taxes if the penalty and interest are removed.
