Rockcastle County board keeps 2024–25 school tax rate at 43.8¢
Summary
The Rockcastle County Board of Education on a special called meeting voted to maintain the 2024–25 property tax rate at 43.8 cents, following a publicly noticed hearing. The motion passed after a recommendation from Dr. Ballinger.
The Rockcastle County Board of Education voted to keep the 2024–25 property tax rate the same as the previous year at 43.8 cents per $100 of assessed value.
Dr. Ballinger recommended maintaining the rate, saying the board should "keep our tax rate the same this year as it was last year, and that tax rate is 43.8¢." Board members noted the required public hearing had been advertised in the newspaper and then approved the recommendation by motion, second and a voice vote.
The action was taken under agenda item 5a during a special called meeting. Board members indicated the public hearing notice had run in the newspaper for two weeks prior to the meeting. No separate roll call vote tally was recorded in the transcript; the motion was adopted following the standard "all in favor" prompt.
