Judge-Executive William Dakota Young read Ordinance 08-13-2024-01 in full during the Aug. 21, 2024 special called meeting, which serves as the first reading of the 2024 county property tax ordinance. Under the ordinance the real-property tax rate remains unchanged from calendar-year 2023 at 10 cents per $100 of assessed value; the personal-property tax rate is reduced from 10.73 cents to 10.0 cents per $100.
