In Columbia, the partners see an opportunity to create apartments that would appeal to people working in either Lancaster or York counties, Myers said. Proximity to the Susquehanna River and other outdoor amenities, like hiking trails, could add to the units' appeal.
"We actually really like Columbia borough," Myers said. "We think there's a lot of value from a locational standpoint."

ReplyDeleteDo you even know how the tax system works?
DeleteDO YOU! If so explain please.
DeleteI hope not just head tax!!
DeleteThe owner of the property will pay taxes, Just like any property owner pays. The renters will not be paying the tax.
DeleteThe tenants have have no reason to pay taxes on the property they rent. However, they do shop in this town and pay sales tax, so there is that.

Deletewhat happend to the one and a half parking spaces per unit rule when i wanted to sell my house and the buyer wanted to trun it into an apartment he was told no because he didn't have the parking 1 1/2 spaces now i see the brough is selling parking spaces for this prodject
ReplyDeleteYes, that kills me too, I saw them rake a woman over the coals about needing one extra parking space. Now they are selling them!?? She could have saved money on her lawyer and simply bought the parking space. Why is it ok for one and not the other? Oh that's right, it's Columbia.
Deletehow about the old chip factory ? why not make these people use that building. that makes more sence
