(KNZA)--The Jackson County Commission is proposing a 2018 county budget of $13 million that calls for a slight decrease in the property tax levy.
The proposed budget, recently approved for publication, contains an estimated tax rate of 76.836 mills, a .786 mill decrease over this year.
The budget calls for the county to collect more than $8.7 million in local taxes.
Even through the mill levy will decrease slightly, the county will collect more than $330,000 in additional tax revenue over this year due to a $5.7 million increase in the county’s assessed valuation.
The Jackson County Commission will consider adoption of the budget following a public hearing September 18th at 10:00 in the morning in the Commissioners Chambers.
