UPTOWN BUSINESS OWNERS, APPRAISER OBJECT TO POTENTIAL LOT SALE
(Richmond, IN)--Some business leaders are expressing their concern over the potential sale of a vacant lot in Uptown Richmond. That lot is located next to what was Bullerdick Furniture near South 9th and Main. The lot has allegedly been offered for sale to Abilities Richmond for $10,000. But, in an email to members of Richmond Common Council that is supported by other business owners, Appraiser Brad Dwenger claims that those other business owners were not notified of the sale and had no chance to bid on the city-owned lot. Dwenger said the $10,000 price is far below market value. He also called the city’s claim that appraised value is 25-40% above assessed value is a "fabricated statement." The city’s administrative office did not return a message from Kicks 96 and 101.7 The Point News on Tuesday.
