Budget commission adopts resolution ending 2.5‑mill hospital levy; commissioners say taxes will fall slightly
Summary
Commissioners reported the budget commission adopted the resolution to stop collecting a 2.5‑mill hospital levy, and said property taxpayers should see a small decrease in taxes next year.
At the Sept. 30 meeting a commissioner announced that the county budget commission had met and officially adopted the August 26 resolution that ends collection of a 2.5‑mill levy for the local hospital. Board members stated the action is now official and that residents should expect to see a slight decrease in property taxes next year.
The speaker encouraged residents to review their tax information in light of the change.
