Commissioner W Kyle Chapman Lindley urged a possible reduction in the 1960 county tax rate to keep revenues near last year. Bruce’s figures show a $1 52 per $100 rate can be lowered with adjustments across funds, potentially limiting total county increases to around 5 percent with a cut. The plan targets a $150000 per cent impact per one cent of tax rate and aligns with speeches ahead of the May 7 primary.
