Predict Tax Increase of 24 Cents in City Budget Talk
City finances projected to raise taxes by about 24 cents per 100 dollars of assessed value with a rate range of 1.12 to 1.13 dollars per 100. Finance Director Sam Roberts said the figure is 7 to 8 cents below initial expectations due to higher assessed values and a larger state utility roll. Auditor John Mansell will finalize the rate by August 31, with minor expected variation. The budget totals about 19.76 million dollars including both supported and non-supported activities, driven by general revenue and surplus projections.
