Net zero mountain home in the tranquil Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina

This mountain retreat makes as much energy as it uses, with stone fireplaces and porches up in the treetops. Living Stone Design + Build, together with MHK Architecture and ID.ology Interiors & Design, has created this net zero mountain home in Hendersonville, North Carolina. Known as Waterfall Overlook, it sits on a wooded hillside above the sound of falling water in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Understanding your tax bill in a reassessment year

Matthew Durham calls attention to what he sees as an important number in this year’s Oconee County property tax bills. It’s the one that reflects the county council decision to lower operations and debt mills from 76.3 to 70.2. Durham, the council chairman, says council’s goal this year was to keep property tax revenue neutral instead of allowing rising property values to generate additional government revenue. He says the property taxable assessment changes relative to the county’s overall tax base helped determine whether property owners county taxes increased, decreased or remained about the same. Tomorrow evening in Westminster there is to be city council discussion of reassessment millage rates. Each council member gets a copy of what’s called the “Oconee County Millage Setting” guide created by the state revenue department. According to the city council’s agenda tomorrow, Westminster is not required to rollback its millage for FY 2027 and can increase its millage based on the calculations.
