At the first 1966 meeting the Crawford County commissioners weighed a possible one to two mill tax hike to fund operations next year. A one mill rise would yield about $75,000 with current assessed value around $75.19 million. Costs foreseen include $10,000 for civil defense expansion, $3,500 for two new voting machines, and additional funds for the medical health center.
