SOUTH BEND - When property tax bills arrived in the mail this fall, the University of Notre Dame received a tax bill for the first time for some on-campus facilities.

The university will be paying a total of $28,300 in property taxes on the Hammes Notre Dame Bookstore, the Morris Inn, Legends restaurant and the nine-hole Burke Golf Course.

That's part of a $230,000 total tax bill Notre Dame owes St. Joseph County this year. The university voluntarily has paid property taxes for years on most off-campus buildings and lots it owns, as well as the 18-hole Warren Golf Course.
