Union County reviews 2025 budget documents and levies; commissioners approve budget amendment
Summary
Commissioners reviewed the Annual Budget packet (Appendix D4) showing total taxes levied of $9,177,173 and levy figures; the board approved an amendment to the 2025 annual budget and included the packet language stating the budget document was adopted and is available at the auditor's office.
At its Oct. 29 meeting, the Union County Board of Commissioners reviewed documents labeled Appendix D4 that present the county’s Annual Budget for Jan. 1–Dec. 31, 2025, including levy schedules and a resolution. The packet lists total taxes levied by the county as $9,177,173.00 and an overall levy of 4.605, and it notes that levies were not approved by the Department of Revenue as of Sept. 24, 2024.
Commissioners approved an amendment to the 2025 Annual Budget during the meeting (motion by Mike Dailey, second by Peggy Ustad). The minutes show the board also authorized Vice Chairman Kevin Joffer to sign reappraisal specifications for property revaluation with Vanguard as part of administrative preparation for the 2025 roll.
The printed packet includes a resolution text that states the provisional budget was prepared and that the accompanying taxes are levied for the 2025 calendar year; that resolution in the packet is dated and shows an adoption statement referencing Sept. 24, 2024 (the packet language indicates it was adopted and available for public inspection at the county auditor’s office). The minutes also note the Department of Revenue had not approved the levies as of Sept. 24, 2024.
The board did not record additional public objections or further debate about levy calculations in the minutes provided. The auditor’s office holds copies of the adopted budget documents for public inspection during normal business hours.
