DISCUSSION OF MILLAGE RATE
Mayor Altznauer stated that he would turn the millage discussion over to Debbie Kilgore. She informed the council that the rollback rate of 3.018 is what she used for the budget figure in the General Fund. She said that it is an increase over last year if you look at the five-year history but it is because the assessments are up and not because we are raising the rate. The gross M & O rate is 6.036 with a rollback rate of 3.018. This rate is lower than last year. The net taxes levied are $123,754.
