A KOIIRINN Hit l.iliinr week Ihc Summit County Commission Hoard signed olf on an agreement with taking one step closer toward conclusion to a taxing issue that has been worked on since lJ)4. Pul simply, BP had sued the county for their 1903 tax appraisal and won. Summit County lost their appeal. Both sides have been working reaching a together to bring about a successful and satisfactory result for all involved." said Kresser. The oil company agreed to a $9 million dollar settlement instead of the over $13 million it could have asked for and dropped a half mil lion dollar interest figure. BP was sold to Merit several months ago and is one of the largest tax payers in Summit County, being especially helpful for the South Summit School District said Kresser. It is so nice to know that with the schools being hit so hard the half million dollar interest ligurc will be dropped. That was a nice thing for the company to agree to- - it was a good faith move." South Summit School District said the schools share comes to $(.9 million. I he school will pay out $ 4.2 million and the remaining $2.7 million will be paid by the State office of Kducation.
