County approves unchanged tax levy despite value decline
County commissioners fixed the year’s levy at seven and a half mills unchanged from last year adding a half mill for bridges. Declines in real estate values across Scranton and surrounding towns reduced assessments, with coal tracts and industrial properties contributing to the drop. A bond issue is expected to fund courthouse grounds and election costs, likely keeping levy levels steady next year.
