Harvey County sets maximum 2026 tax levy at $19.26 million, schedules Aug. 26 budget hearing
Summary
The board authorized a combined notice to exceed the revenue neutral rate and set a maximum 2026 tax levy of $19,255,616 (estimated mill rate 45.339), with a public hearing scheduled for Aug. 26, 2025 at 6:00 p.m.
Harvey County’s Board of Commissioners voted July 15 to accept a combined notice of intent to exceed the Revenue Neutral Rate and to set the maximum 2026 ad valorem tax levy at $19,255,616, an estimated mill rate of 45.339 (an increase of about 1.75 mills). The board authorized the chair to sign the notice to be provided to the County Clerk before the July 20 deadline.
Assistant County Administrator and Finance Director Shannon Kingsley presented the budget materials and the notice. The public hearing on the budget and objections to the proposed use of funds and amount of ad valorem tax was set for Aug. 26, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. at the Harvey County Courthouse. The notice included the statement: "Yes, we intend to exceed the Revenue Neutral Rate and our proposed mill levy rate is 45.339." The motion to accept the notice was made by Commissioner Terry Scott, seconded by Commissioner Becky Reimer, and passed unanimously.
The minutes provide a budget summary and fund-by-fund figures, but the final mill rate remains subject to change depending on the final assessed valuation and hearings required by statute.
