The Greenville County Finance Committee approved a resolution to continue the current millage rate for the Bowen Springs Fire District rather than increase it.
Mister Lambert told the committee the item was a continuation of the Bowen Springs current millage and that, “by state law, there's a cap max of 20 mills” that the district has been operating under. Chief Graham attended and no objections were recorded on the record.
A councilor representing the affected district said no constituents had contacted them in opposition and moved to approve the continuation; the committee approved the motion by voice vote. The transcript does not include a roll-call tally or the exact maintained millage rate.
The action preserves the district’s existing tax rate arrangement under the state law cap; the committee’s record does not show any requested changes or additional conditions.
