ITEM: Ordinance No. 09-10497
Consider adoption of revised 1 corrected ordinance granting final approval of a property tax exemption
for Bergkamp, Inc.
BACKGROUND:
On March 2, 2009 the City Commission approved an ordinance formalizing a local property tax
exemption granted to Bergkamp, Inc. for a new 34,500 sq. ft. building constructed at 500 East
Schilling Road in Salina. A copy of this ordinance was required to be included in Bergkamp, Inc.'s
exemption application to the State Board of Tax Appeals. The Board of Tax Appeals staff has
requested that a date in Section 8 of the ordinance be changed from 2009 (the tax year) to 2010 (the
calendar year) to be consistent with the order the Board of Tax Appeals will be writing granting the
exemption. The exemption will be based on the valuation placed on the building by the County
Appraiser on January 1, 2010.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
To allow Bergkamp, Inc.'s application to be processed by the Board of Tax Appeals in a timely
manner, staff would recommend passage of the attached ordinance with the revised date in Section 8.
The remainder of the ordinance is unchanged.
