County weighs tax hike for sheriff coverage in plan
Henderson County commissioners reviewed a four year capital plan including a 32 million health education center and a 10 million joint emergency HQ. They debated funding options such as a 1 to 3 cent property tax increase but will wait for assessed real estate value changes before deciding. They endorsed the JHEC design and co location of emergency services while signaling Flat Rock should share sheriff coverage costs. County Manager Steve Wyatt cautioned that all financial choices are interconnected.
