Douglas County to set mill levy for rural Fire District No 1
Douglas County commissioners will start formal action on the 2024 budget by setting a hearing on the budget and on exceeding the revenue neutral rate. They trimmed the overall mill levy from 46.219 to 44.219 mills, yet plan to spend about 27 million more in property taxes than 2023. The 194 million proposal is now 190.7 million. Consolidated Fire District No 1 may keep a flat 5.5 mill levy with a 2.135 million budget, also planning to exceed the revenue neutral rate and hold a public hearing. The district plans $150,000 in its equipment reserve and staff pay adjustments.
