County approves tax-exemption request for First Choice Primary Care

Jones County local meeting · September 3, 2026

Summary

Officials approved an exemption extension for First Choice Primary Care, a nonprofit provider that purchased space on Shurling Drive in 2025 and began providing care in December 2025; staff characterized the appeal as a taxability question filed during the appeal period.

Miss Buchanan described an exemption application and appeal filed by First Choice Primary Care for a property on Shurling Drive and recommended approving the extension request. "They are a nonprofit that provides medical and behavioral health to anyone, and they purchased this shopping center back in 2025," she said, adding the clinic began providing medical care in December 2025.

The Chair asked whether staff had legal authority to extend an exemption deadline; staff clarified the matter concerned taxability and not assessed value and that the statute authorized handling in this appeal window. Committee member (S2) moved to approve the exemption request, Ratlunch seconded, and the board approved the request by voice vote.
