RE: Taxes and Assessments Owing on 77 Acre Mommsen Subdivision Parcel
Here is a breakdown of the taxes and assessrnents owing on the 77 acre parcel near Mommsen
Subdivision as of May 1, 2006.
According to the borough, the property taxes that would need to be paid are from 1979 until
~ 1986 (the judgmcnt year). The total amount of city and borough property taxes is $38,521.75.
~~ That breaks down to borough taxes of ~ 18,289.67 and ciYy taxes of $20,232,08. While we would
initially pay the borough the entire $38,521.75 amount, it wouid disburse the city t~es of
$20,232.08 back to the city.
Tbe amount owing for water and sewer assessments on the property as of May 1, 2006 is
$87,4'79.82. That breaks down to ~u23,526.96 far principal, $60,446.66 for interest and $3,506.20
for penalty. In my opinion the city could waive the inYeresY and penalty, but should repay the
prineipal of $23,526.96 to the water and s~wer fund.
Please leY me know if you have any question or need any more information.
