[6. RESOLUTION AND PUBLIC HEARING]
I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY. OKAY ANYBODY HEARING NO CORRECTIONS WILL MOVE ON TO RESOLUTION AND PUBLIC PERIOD. RESOLUTION IN PUBLIC HEARING RESOLUTION ARE 46 2022. RESOLUTION PROVIDING THE DULY AUTHORIZED WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE CITY OF NEW ALBANY PURSUANT TO REVISED CODE SECTION 5709.91. B IN PARENTHESES TO A REAL PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION UNDER REVISED CODE SECTION 5709.12 FOR CANINE COMPANIONS. MR CHRIST. YES THANK YOU. AND I FIRST MET TECHNOLOGY ZIEGLER, WHO DID ALL OF THE WORK ON THIS PROJECT. I'M JUST THE MOUTHPIECE FOR IT THIS MORNING. UM CANINE COMPANIONS IS WAS NOTIFIED IN NOTIFIED THE CITY. EXCUSE ME ON NOVEMBER 30TH THAT THEY APPLIED FOR A REAL PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTION AND REMISSION THROUGH THE OHIO DEPARTMENT OF TAXATION FOR THEIR FIVE OH ONE C THREE STATUS, SO THEY ARE NON PROFIT ORGANIZATION. AND AS SUCH, WE ALWAYS ANTICIPATED THAT THEY WOULD BE APPLYING FOR THIS EXEMPTION. IT TURNS OUT THAT AFTER HOWARD DEPARTMENT TAXATION TOOK A LOOK AT THE RESEARCH FOUND THAT THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY IS WITHIN ONE OF THE ORIGINAL RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL DISTRICTS THAT WE CREATED. IT WAS PART OF THE SAUDER LANDS DOWN IN WINDSOR TIFF, AND SO THAT DOESN'T REALLY MEAN ANYTHING TO US FROM THE STANDPOINT THAT WE ALWAYS KNEW THAT THEY WOULD BE RECEIVING A PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS SO THERE WOULDN'T BE ANY REVENUE, THEN GOING INTO THAT. TO FUND HOWEVER , THE STATUTE HAS A CERTAIN LITTLE PROVISIONS IN IT. THAT BASICALLY SAYS THAT, UM, THAT THE TIFF LANGUAGE AND THE TIPS STATUTE TRUMPS ANY OTHER TYPE OF EXEMPTION. WE ALWAYS KNEW THIS TO BE THINGS LIKE CR EXEMPTIONS OR OTHER SORT OF EXEMPTIONS THAT ARE PROVIDED FOR AS A PART OF INCENTIVES. WE NEVER THOUGHT THAT THIS COULD ALSO INCLUDE FIVE OH ONE C 38 CORPORATIONS AND STATUS. AND SO THEY REACHED OUT AND AFTER SARAH WORKED SO HARD WITH, UM WITH TAXATION TO REALLY NUMBER ONE FIGURE OUT IF WE NEEDED TO HAVE THIS MEETINGS , UH, THE END OF THE YEAR AND WHETHER IT WAS IMPORTANT AND IT TURNS OUT IT WAS WE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GATHERING AND DOING THIS FOR THIS ORGANIZATION. THEY ARE, AS YOU KNOW, AN ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION. UM THAT SUPPORTS FAMILIES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY THAT HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS AND REALLY PROVIDES THEM WITH, UM, THE COMFORT DOGS AND CARE DOGS AND IN SOME CASES, EVEN COMPANION DOGS THAT REALLY HELP WITH QUALITY OF LIFE WITH CERTAIN INDIVIDUALS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS, SO WE APPRECIATE YOUR CONSIDERATION FOR THIS TONIGHT. UM, WE DID SARAH PROACTIVELY LAST WEEK SINCE THE LEGISLATION AND, UM, THE RESOLUTION THAT WE HAVE TO TAXATION TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS WOULD SATISFY THEIR NEEDS, AND IT DOES INDEED SATISFY EVERYTHING THAT THEY NEED, AND SO WE ASKED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IN GRANTING THE REORDERING OF THE EXEMPTION FOR CANINE COMPANIONS, AND JUST TO BE CLEAR THIS DOESN'T REMOVE ARTIFACTS. EMPTION IT JUST REORDERS IT SO THAT THE FIVE OH ONE C THREE CAN BE EFFECTIVE. SO IF THEY WOULD SELL THE PROPERTY TO SOMEBODY IN THE FUTURE THAT ISN'T IN A FIVE OH ONE C THREE STATUS, WE WOULD STILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO COLLECT THE REVENUE INTO THE TIP STATUE. AND THAT WAS ALSO, UM SOMETHING THAT SURROGATES CREDIT FOR JUST REALLY THINKING STRATEGICALLY ABOUT HOW WE WORK THROUGH THAT PROCESS. OKAY ANY QUESTIONS OR[00:05:02]
