Day care facilities in Providence Village will not receive a break in their town property tax bill, the Town Council decided Tuesday evening.

The reasons given were the uncertainty in the number of facilities that might have qualified in the future out of the five in-process or already completed facilities and because commercial property tax helps offset the tax burden for Providence Village residents.

'I would be hesitant to do anything right now, for sure, while we still don't even know how many child care facilities we'll end up with,' council member Klayton Rutherford said. 'Maybe this is something we can look at down the road when we're more built out and we know the lasting impact of this, but right now, I feel like it's too early.'
