Lawrence and Douglas county property owners will learn next month the upcoming year’s tax levy as city budget hearings begin. The preliminary budget is about 3000 dollars under last year, hinting at a possible levy increase unless expenditures are trimmed. A higher city levy would hit a valuation about a million dollars lower, reducing revenue by roughly 12000 if unchanged. Hearings aim to discuss service cuts versus tax relief while farmers debate remedies amid Kansas wheat board debates at Shannon hearing in Kansas City.
