Commissioner Andy Fox opened the workshop to discuss a requested payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT) for a proposed project at 400 West John Sevier Highway and invited Mark Mamatov to explain how PILOTs work and the statutory basis. He identified the property as owned by DWF John Sevier LLC and said the session was a workshop rather than a vote.
