I rarely read comments on knoxnews stories. However, for some reason I decided to look at the comments to this story. It seems that Commissioner Amy Broyles “sun-shined tea room meetings” with other Commissioners has been occurring at a local business that is allegedly behind on their city and county property taxes.
The question is should the county and in particular county commissioners who decide on issues of business compliance like the beer board and all other issues involving the lives of county residents be spending dollars at an establishment that is behind on their obligation to our community? Should the Commissioners find a business that complies with the requirements of operating a business in our community? I am not saying they should or should not, I am asking a question. .
According to knoxnews comment poster “JustAGuy” at 8:25 a.m. this morning, “So, when is Moriarty going to pay his very delinquent property taxes on this same property that these commissioners are using for meetings. City Property Taxes = $13,393 County Property Taxes = $16,449 Does these County Commissioners have anything to do with his non-payment with no consequences?” Maybe Trustee Duncan’s delinquent tax attorney is pursuing payments! Just Kidding, Maybe!
