The Board of Commissioners completed the public‑hearing process in August and confirmed the county’s millage rate at 8.512 mills.
At a called public hearing on Aug. 19 and again at a public hearing on Aug. 26, Chairman Charles Coffey explained the rate would remain essentially the same as the prior year (8.512 mills) and noted the county’s gross digest increased by just under $64 million. Coffey said the county has publicly advertised the hearings and prepared a five‑year history of the digest for review.
The Aug. 19 hearing recorded that the school millage is 17.30 and that the net digest was slightly down year over year; the Aug. 26 hearing reiterated the 8.512 proposed rate and closed after no members of the public spoke. The board set a called meeting for Aug. 19 earlier in the process and recorded the final public‑hearing adjournment on Aug. 26.
