Pamlico County Faces Tax Hike After Flat Revenues
Pamlico County auditors warn a static tax base forces expense cuts or higher taxes next year. In 1994 the county used 200000 from savings to balance the budget, and in 1995 commissioners raised the tax rate by 5.55 cents. Revenues climbed from 5.1 million in 1989 to 7.1 million in 1994 while expenditures rose from 5.1 million to 7.4 million. The board weighs trimming county government until the 1996 revaluation or seeking more revenue, with the current tax base at 470.3 million and rates around 66.9 to 72.45 cents per 100. Federal aid may also shrink under new GOP control.
