Chair moves to approve tax-office dispute with Pritchard as staff reports taxable-value rise
Summary
The Chair moved to approve a tax-office dispute involving Pritchard that the transcript lists with an annual cost of $26,280; county staff said the taxable value rose and that the certified rate is 101% and the county has no debt. No formal vote was recorded before adjournment.
The Chair moved "to approve the tax office dispute just in late with Pritchard added for the period of January through December 31 for annual cost of $26,280 and authorize," according to the transcript. The motion language was corrected on the record earlier in the meeting when the Chair clarified a previously misstated numeric amount.
A staff member presenting tax figures told the meeting that official taxable value has increased over last year by "$58,537,749" (as spoken) and cited new-property totals (repeated in the transcript as "20,000,000" and related line items). The staff member said the county's certifying rate is 101% and added, "I certify this every year," noting the statement is part of the routine certification practice and that the county currently carries no debt, which affects how a debt rate would be calculated if one were applicable.
The transcript does not record a roll-call vote or a formal tally on the Pritchard dispute motion. The Chair then moved to adjourn and the meeting was declared adjourned shortly afterward.
The discussion consisted primarily of the Chair's motion to handle the tax-office dispute and the staff member's presentation of taxable-value figures and procedural certification details. No additional actions, votes, or formal decisions are recorded in the transcript excerpt.
