A meticulous investigation of how Durham NC handed outsized property-tax relief to giant landowners. "A modest bungalow contesting a few thousand dollars was far likelier to walk away empty-handed than a global corporation asking to shed millions." @indyweek.bsky.social @writingthings.bsky.social
Landlords and national companies won billions in property tax reductions. City leadership, banking on the revenue, didn’t know until April.
