Greene County to compare 0.8%, 0.9% and 1.0% rate scenarios before finalizing recommendation

Greene County meeting · September 9, 2026

Summary

County staff will prepare comparative distribution tables showing the likely impacts of selecting a 0.8%, 0.9% or 1.0% county-service rate; a follow-up meeting will consider those tables and further municipal and township input.

After debate about whether to start at the draft 0.8% county-service rate or choose a higher figure, attendees asked staff to run side-by-side scenarios so each municipality and township can see likely distributions.

Chair agreed: "We will definitely have different numbers so you can see the comparison between the 0.8, the 0.9, the 1.0," and staff committed to return to the Commissioner's Room on Sept. 30 at 1:30 p.m. to review those comparisons. Participants said they want numbers that show which units would be "made whole" and which would lose revenue under each option.

No formal rate decision was made; the meeting functioned as an information-gathering and planning session to produce the materials the county council will need as it approaches the 2028 adoption window.
