(KMZA)--The Seneca City Council has adopted a revised 2021 budget.
City Administrator Matt Rehder said the city had published the budget with a mill levy of 34.414 mills, the maximum allowed under the state's tax lid. But adopted a budget last week with an estimated tax rate of 32.588 mills, which is the same levy as this year.
Rehder said the mill levy is expected to generate just over $800,000 in tax revenue and should meet the city's financial needs.
It's the 9th straight year the council has approved a budget with a consistent mill levy relying on increases in the city's assessed valuation.
The city's assessed valuation increased just over $645,000.
In other business, the Council accepted the retirement resignation of longtime City Clerk Jane Strathman, which is effective in April of next year.
Rehder said the city has begun advertising for a replacement and hopes to get someone on board this year to begin training under Strathman.
