Votes and actions at a glance: Putnam BOCC approves millage, hearing dates and tentative budget
Summary
The board approved motions to set maximum millage rates, schedule budget hearings, and adopt a tentative balanced budget; public comment was invited but none was offered during the hearing.
At tonight's Putnam County BOCC meeting, commissioners approved three formal motions: to set maximum millage rates (general 8.7418; fire MSTU 1.400) and submit required paperwork to the Department of Revenue; to set tentative and final budget hearing dates (Sept. 8 and Sept. 22, 2026); and to approve a tentative balanced budget for July that includes a 3% cost-of-living increase for board employees.
All three motions were moved by a commissioner, seconded, and carried by vocal assent. The transcript records the Chair calling for the ayes and the motions carrying; no roll-call tallies or individual recorded yes/no votes appear in the record. The public comment period for the hearing produced no speakers.
