Assessor staff said several livestock taxing categories shifted in 2024: cattle millage decreased from 10 mills to 9.604, sheep and goats and dairy cattle declined, while bison millage rose slightly; commissioners requested additional analysis noted as sent with the packet.

A commissioner asked for clarification about special taxing districts for agricultural categories. Assessor staff said there were changes across several categories and that those differences accompanied the packet's analysis. "I think cattle went down.
