Next Year's Budget Poses Problem For Oak Hill City Councilmen
Oak Hill faces a budgeting hurdle with three months left in the current year as council weighs funding at least a third of next year’s budget. A gross sales tax replaces the rejected special levy, with rates set between 10 and 30 percent and exemptions limited. City records show $8,574.44 collected so far, and policy now allows deduction for out-of-town tax payments if the other city has a similar tax. Council eyes reissuing a three-year special levy and possibly a municipal service fee to fund police, fire, streets, and sewer without voter approval, under a 30 percent petition rule.
