Aren’t property taxes paid by the landlord and not the tenant ? It says Capital One was leasing the property, making them tenants only.
Depending on the lease contract, they could be liable for the full amount of the lease. That would obviously be much more than the amount of the property tax, so maybe they are actually getting off easy. Still, it should be between them and their landlord and not involve the city at all, unless the city actually is their landlord ?
Good point. That one article is all I know about the matter.
