Richard Odom (Property Owner) is the owner of the property described as Lots 13 & 14, Block 182, out of Chamberlain Arlington Heights 1st, situated in the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, Texas, being further described in Volume 2044, Page 69, of the Tarrant County Deed Records, Tarrant County, Texas, at 5525 Donnelly Avenue, Fort Worth, Texas. The property is located within the Como/Sunset Heights Neighborhood Empowerment Zone (NEZ).
The Property Owner plans to invest an estimated amount of $84,600.00 to construct an approximately 1,306 square foot single-family residence (Project). The Project will be sold to a homebuyer to be used as a primary residence.
The Neighborhood Services Department reviewed the application and certified that the Property Owner and Project met the eligibility criteria to receive a NEZ Municipal Property Tax Abatement. The NEZ Basic Incentives includes a Five-Year Municipal Property Tax Abatement on the increased value of improvements to the qualified owner of any new construction or rehabilitation within the NEZ.
Upon execution of the Agreement, the total assessed value of the improvements used for calculating municipal property tax will be frozen for a period of five years starting January 2020 at the estimated pre-improvement value, as defined by the Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD) in 2018, after demolition of any existing buildings so the pre-improvement value for tax abatement purposes will be $0.00. The municipal property tax on the improved value of the Project after construction is estimated in the amount of $665.00 per year for a total amount of $3,325.00 over the five-year period. However, this estimate may differ from the actual tax abatement value, which will be calculated based on the Tarrant Appraisal District appraised value of the property.
In the event of a sale of this property, the Tax Abatement Agreement may be assigned to a new owner's first mortgage or a new owner as a primary residence. All other assignments must be approved by the City Council.
This property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 3.
