Douglas County budget to hold mill levy flat for 2025
County Administrator Sara Plinsky and staff propose a 206 million dollar 2025 budget with a flat property tax rate at 44.208 mills, nearly unchanged from 44.209 mills in 2024. Budgets rise 15.3 million from last year as sales tax and interest income rebound, while 77 percent of revenues still come from property taxes. Budget hearings begin next week at the Douglas County Public Works facility with commissioners reviewing multiple sessions.
