NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Homeowners aren't alone in facing skyrocketing property taxes in Nashville. Re-appraisals in 2025 have some business owners re-evaluating.
Tom Morales with ACME Feed & Seed on Lower Broadway told NewsChannel 5 his property tax bill went from $129,000 dollars last year to $600,000 this year.
And this comes at a time when he says business is changing on lower broadway. He told us he ended 2025 "in the red" by a half million dollars.
Mayor Freddie O'Connell did speak to this issue recently saying a review by the state comptroller determined the valuations do, indeed, reflect market value and acknowledge that will be a challenge for some business owners.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
