Council reviews history of certified tax levies as part of budget briefing
Summary
Council members reviewed certified tax levies from prior years (2014 and 2015) and discussed how county new-construction numbers are used in the L2 budget worksheet to calculate current levies; no decision was taken to change levies at the meeting.
Council began a budget-review segment by examining the historical certified tax levies. Staff said the levies for 2014 and 2015 are available in the budget folder and emphasized that levies change every year. "These are the actual certified levies that were 2014 and 2015," a staff member said.
Staff explained they obtain new-construction values from the county and put those figures into the L2 worksheet to calculate current levy options; council members were asked to review the L2 when it is presented to ensure funds are allocated as intended. Council did not take action to change current levies during the meeting.
