Close the "DARK STORE" Tax Assessment Loophole
Please support legislation that stops the loophole that allows businesses to pay 1/3 of their tax assessed values, which then results in huge budget cuts to publicly funded programs and services essential for a thriving community.
Why is this important?
This petition was created because legislation is needed to stop local businesses from taking advantage of a loophole that allows for unreasonable decreases in property taxes and is a violation of the state tax law. These tax cuts will result in budget cuts to publicly funded programs and services such as education, libraries, road maintenance and repair, search and rescue, senior services, veterans affairs and recreational facilities that are an essential part of our community.
