IN4M: Property Tax Valuation
101 is free and open to the public. It is especially relevant for
business and property owners and renters in the River Arts District.
Background
On
October 9, 2012, at Phil Mechanic Studios, artists and business owners in the
River Arts District met with County Commissioner candidates to discuss the
impact of the arts and raise awareness of the impact of the arts on the
economy.
Concern
for property value and tax increases led to questions about affordable rents
and living in the district. As a follow up to the Candidate Forum, River
Arts District Business Association and the Asheville Area Arts Council present
IN4M, a series of informational, educational forums to discuss the complexities
around increasing property values, taxes and general change in the River Arts
District.
