City faces 22 percent property tax hike in New Castle
City residents would see a 22 percent property tax increase next year under a 27.12 mill ordinance the council introduced and then tabled. Officials expect further cuts to the $6 million budget, with at least 1.5 mills shaved from the levy as the final budget is refined. The measure allocates 22.62 mills general revenue, 2.7 mills for bonded debts, and 1.8 mills for the library. The council also approved selling land to St Francis Housing Corp for $100,000 to build about 100 elderly housing units in the South Side Urban Renewal Area, funded in part by HUD with construction likely to start in spring.
