County tax drops as county debt lowers taxes this year
The county reports a $9,000 surplus after building the courthouse addition and plans to apply $8,000 to the next two years’ taxes. The tax rate falls from 0.0136 to 0.0086, reducing town payments, with Kibworth and Eden Days noted in comparison. County commissioners Eldridge Richardson and Hinckley receive credit for the favorable balance as juror apportionment for the new census awaits.
