Ameriplex Superior Partners successfully <br />completed construction of this facility, met its investment target and now leases the entire facility <br />to one tenant (who employs 70+ employees). The building was first assessed as of March 1, 2013 <br />(for property taxes which became due and payable in 2014). Due to employee turnover, <br />Ameriplex Superior Partners inadvertently missed the 30 -day window to claim the benefits of the <br />abatement for the 2013 - pay -2014 tax year. The enclosed resolution kindly requests waiver of this <br />non - compliance in order to restore the tax abatement benefits to which Ameriplex Superior <br />Partners would have received had it timely filed the application. <br />We are happy to meet with the Community and Economic Development Committee of the <br />Council and the full Council on Monday, May 12 "i, or at such other date as the Council may <br />prefer. Please feel welcome to contact me, at any time, if I can provide any additional <br />information. We greatly appreciate your professional assistance. <br />Very truly yours, <br />Timothy A.
