The Crawford County Board of Supervisors held an advertised public hearing on the proposed property tax March 31, opening the session at 5:30 P.M. Chair Craig Dozark presided. Meeting minutes record one written statement and four citizens attending in person; attendees raised questions about levy rates, the county’s revenue and economic growth prospects, and the future of Smithfield.
