Council questions why a tax-abated apartment building has only two employees
Who it touches: Residents watching whether businesses getting city tax breaks are delivering the jobs they promised.
During its annual review of Miller-Parrott Lofts' property tax abatement (granted in 2017), a councillor asked why the building had only two employees, calling it odd for what was described as a "nice-sized facility." Another council member suggested the low count could reflect contract workers rather than full-time staff, but the question was never resolved.
