Harpers Ferry council lays FY2027 levy after no public objections
Summary
The Harpers Ferry council opened public comment on the FY2027 levy, heard no objections and voted unanimously to lay the levy for the FY2027 general and coal funds. A roll call confirmed six "aye" votes.
The Harpers Ferry special tenant council opened public comment on the FY2027 levy and, after hearing no public objections, moved to lay the levy for the FY2027 general and coal funds.
The chair formally called for public comment and, finding none, closed the comment period at 10:02 a.m. The council then took a roll call vote. Councilors recorded their votes (including Chris, Jesse, Storm and Christian) and the motion to lay the levy carried with six votes in favor.
Why it matters: Laying the levy is a procedural step required before the town can finalize its property tax rate for the fiscal year. Officials said objections present at the hearing would have required additional steps before tallying the final levy; none were raised.
What happens next: With the levy lain, the town will proceed with the administrative steps required to finalize FY2027 billing and any associated notices to property owners.
