[RC] Boarding Business- Help - Jerry & Susan MilamWe own about 20 acres of pasture that we currently have 6 horses living on conected to our home. We just got our local property tax bill and it went up from $67/ year to $1400! We are surrounded by large acre crop farms. Unless we grow crops, raise livestock or board other horses our property doesn't qualify any longer for the lower agricultural tax rate any longer. I do board 2 horses but until now have not made this a business. The people who board here are friends and I charge them only minimally. I know nothing about business or starting one. Can someone direct me to a good resource for information on starting a horse related business like boarding so we can qualify for the agricultural rate? Thanks, Susan ============================================================ They're athletes! This is a partnership between horse and rider - we don't have any jockeys out there, just pals and partners. We'd allow a rider with a broken foot, a sore back and a nasty cold to compete - but we would never let a horse in a similiar condition hit the trail. ~ Dr. Barney Flemming DVM ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
