Finance staff: millage unchanged for consent agenda; refuse assessment preliminary and, if approved Tuesday, becomes the notice amount
Summary
Finance staff told commissioners the millage rate on the consent agenda is unchanged from last year and the preliminary refuse assessment must be filed with the county by mid-July. Commissioners were advised that the refuse amount, if approved on Tuesday, will be the amount included in notices and cannot be altered without pulling the item from consent.
Yannick from finance explained the items the commission will see on the consent agenda and the limits on changing preliminary figures after the tax-collector filing.
"What we have on consent is the millage rate, that has not changed from last year... And refuse, that's preliminary, that's required by, by the county. That's the deadline," Yannick said, adding that the refuse figure would be sent in notices and could not be changed unless the commission pulled the item from consent.
Commissioners asked whether the millage rate could change later during the budget process (it can) and confirmed staff will clarify if the refuse amount should be removed from consent for fuller discussion.
