Commissioners Set Elected Officials' Salaries and Approve Proposed 2024 Tax Rate
Summary
The court approved proposed salary increases for elected county officers (Exhibit F) and approved proposed tax-rate components: M&O $0.489133 and I&S $0.052867 (sum = $0.542000). The transcript contains a typographical error on the recorded 'total' rate that was corrected.
Milam County Commissioners adopted Exhibit F, which lists proposed increases to salaries, expenses and other allowances for elected county officers for 2025 (examples in the exhibit: County Judge proposed $70,747; County Clerk proposed $64,641; Sheriff proposed $90,500). The motion to approve salaries carried unanimously.
The court then adjusted and approved proposed tax-rate components: a proposed maintenance and operations (M&O) rate of $0.489133 and an interest and sinking (I&S) rate of $0.052867. The two approved components sum to a total proposed rate of $0.542000; the meeting transcript shows the total printed as $0.05420, which appears to be a typographical error in the minutes. The votes to approve the component rates and the overall proposed rate were unanimous.
