(KMZA)--The Nemaha County Commission has approved for publication a preliminary 2025 budget that calls for net expenditures of nearly $16.6 million and a nearly 1.8 mill levy increase. However, Commissioners say they plan to look at budget cuts before the budget is finalized.
The proposed budget was approved for publication last week.
The proposed budget contains an estimated tax rate of 37.817 mills, which is anticipated to generate nearly $8.9 million in tax revenue.
The budget is based on an assessed valuation of nearly $235 million, which is a more than $900,000 decrease over this year.
The Commission will consider adoption of the budget following a public hearing at their September 16th meeting. The Commission will also consider the adoption of a resolution to exceed the revenue neutral rate of 36.168 mills following a separate hearing at the meeting.
