Council questions why a tax-abated apartment building has only two employees
What happened
During its annual review of Miller-Parrott Lofts' property tax abatement (granted in 2017), a councillor asked why the building had only two employees, calling it odd for what was described as a "nice-sized facility." Another council member suggested the low count could reflect contract workers rather than full-time staff, but the question was never resolved.
Who it affects
Residents watching whether businesses getting city tax breaks are delivering the jobs they promised.
The outcome
Despite the unanswered question, council voted unanimously to find Miller-Parrott's compliance filing in substantial compliance.
