Taxes, Trash, and Tires

Alderman Russ Edwards with an update on key BOMA votes from this week:

We adjourned our meeting tonight (Tuesday, August 27/Wednesday August 28th) at 12:30. Some very important issues were voted on, notably:
- Firestone attempted to open a tire store next to Lowe’s on Calender Lane. We rejected this by denying the rezoning for the property. So Hendersonville will not have another tire store, at least for the time being.
- Anderson Park was approved. This will be a housing development behind Lowe’s. The developer agreed to pay $288,000 within 90 days that will be used specifically for much needed paving throughout the city. More impact fees will be paid to the city as the houses are built.
- The garbage fee was rolled into the general fund and will be paid for with property taxes. Citizens will therefore no longer pay the $293 yearly garbage fee.
- The property tax rate was increased to $0.92 per $100 of assessed property. This means that those with property worth $350,000 or less will save money because of removing the separate trash fee.
These were incredibly difficult issues; ones that we all struggled with.
