(KNZA)--The Seneca City Council Wednesday evening adopted the 2026 budget as published.
That came came on a 5-0 vote following a hearing drawing no public comment. Council member Mike Stallbaumer was absent.
The Council also on a 5-0 vote adopted a resolution to exceed the revenue neutral rate.
The nearly $13.6 million budget maintains the same tax levy as the past years. It has an estimated tax rate of 32.58 mills, which is nearly 2.9 mills above the revenue neutral rate.
It calls for the city to collect nearly $1.2 million in tax revenue. Even though the mill levy will remain the same, the city will collect nearly $107,000 in additional tax revenue due to a $3.2 million increase in the city's assessed valuation to $36.8 million.
