Bill > B26-0451

This bill provides a property tax exemption for Food & Friends, Inc. for their property located at 219 Riggs Road, NE, specifically Lot 0005, Square 3766. The exemption will cover 97% of the land's property taxes, with only 3% remaining taxable, and applies only if the organization continues to use the property for charitable food distribution or related services. The tax exemption is additional to any other tax relief the organization might receive from other sources. The bill is an emergency measure that will take effect upon mayoral approval and remain in effect for up to 90 days, with the tax exemption specifically applying as of October 1, 2025. The purpose appears to be supporting Food & Friends, a nonprofit organization that provides food services, by reducing their property tax burden and helping them maintain their charitable operations at this specific location.
