That would seem to imply that the entity with a $98.5 million market value is only accessed for taxes at about $400 thousand. That's a very large disconnect between accessed value and market value. The value difference seems way to good to be real for the property owner, or maybe not considering the current owner?



Utility costs are pass-thru costs. Rates are based on costs. So, you should be cheering property tax expenditures are low
