Buffalo County board adopts 2024–25 property tax levies
Summary
On Oct. 8, 2024 the Buffalo County Board of Equalization adopted Resolution 2024-48 setting the county’s 2024–25 property tax levies, including a county general levy of 0.314032 and a total county levy of 0.335479.
The Buffalo County Board of Equalization adopted property tax levies for the 2024–25 fiscal year on Oct. 8, 2024, approving Resolution 2024-48 that sets the county’s total levy at 0.335479.
The decision came after County Assessor Roy Meusch presented levy materials. Commissioner Bill Maendele moved to adopt the resolution, and Commissioner Timothy Higgins seconded the motion. The board voted Aye: Maendele, Higgins, Lynch, Kouba, Morrow and Klein; Commissioner Ronald Loeffelholz was recorded absent. The motion carried.
Under the adopted resolution the county’s general levy is 0.314032, the bond levy is 0.021068 and the veteran’s aid levy is 0.000379, for a combined county levy of 0.335479. The minutes record additional municipal, school district and special district levy figures in the adopted schedule.
The levies set by the Board of Equalization are administrative actions required each year to reflect budgets and tax requests submitted by cities, villages, school districts and other taxing entities; the board’s action finalizes the county portion of those rates for the 2024–25 tax year. The minutes do not record any further public comment or a separate roll call on individual subdistrict figures.
The Board of Commissioners reconvened the regular meeting after the levy adoption; the board’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Oct. 22, 2024.
