Summary

The commission approved a notice that Miami County Fire District No. 1 will exceed the revenue-neutral rate, with a proposed 4.000-mill levy estimated to generate roughly $250,000 for equipment and reserve alignment.

County finance told the commission that Miami County Fire District No. 1 is proposing to exceed the revenue-neutral rate with a current proposed mill levy of 4.000 mills, which finance estimated would raise roughly $250,000 for equipment and reserve alignment. The commission moved, seconded, and approved the notice.

"The current proposed mill levy rate is point 4.000. That is an additional roughly $250,000 that we will be, pushing into the fire district number 1," Sydney Ming, director of finance, said during the presentation. Finance framed the increase as a means to align reserve funding with equipment needs.

The vote to approve the notice was unanimous; commissioners did not take further action on equipment procurement during this meeting.
