Fire Municipal Service Taxing Unit millage rate
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

I will now provide a summary of the Fire Municipal Service Taxing Unit budget stating the millage rate, the percentage change from the rollback rate, and the reasons for the change. The Fire Municipal Service Taxing Unit Fund has a recommended tax levy of 2.1225 MILS. This represents a 5.62% increase from the rollback rate of 2.0096. Taxable values for this municipal service taxing unit increased eleven point seven percent. The increase in property tax value property values results in an
additional twelve point five million in property tax revenue. The additional revenue will be used to fund wage increases for the firefighter union, four additional emergency medical services supervisors, and four additional fire arson investigators. I would ask the board to accept public comment and then vote on the fire municipal service taxing unit fund millage rate. The minimum vote for this final hearing is four votes.
Okay.
Is there anyone here who wishes to speak to this item?
Actually I I didn't save my whole paragraph. I would ask the board to accept public com no, you said that. Yeah. Is there anyone here to speak to the Fire Municipal Serving Service Taxing Unit?
Constitution. Okay. Is there a motion to adopt the millage ratio of 2.125 MLs?
So move. Yeah.
Second.
All in favor? Aye. Aye.
