Mr. Inks responded that the <br />balance is $70,000-75,000. The taxes have <br />been appealed and the new amount not been <br />set. <br />Mr. Varner wanted assurance that the <br />$100,000 number was not flexible upward <br />and that the city would only pay the <br />mortgage balance and taxes due. Mr. Inks <br />assured him that was so. <br />Ms. Jones asked if the renovated property <br />mi~~ht have any taxable entity using it. Mr. <br />Cardenas said that a commercial business <br />will be moving from Arizona to operate <br />there, but it will not be a commercial <br />business then, but under Notre Dame. <br />Mr. Byrd noted that the building had never <br />been taxable for anv of its past uses. That's <br />what the tax appeal was about. If the appeal <br />leaves any taxes still due, they will be old <br />taxes. Future use of the building will not be <br />taxable at all. <br />13 <br />
