Moore So so and Bob please step in. So we set the trim today or reminder that what we one of the things we can't do is raise the millage rate once that's done that's correct and published. You can always lower. Yes
Bob And so at our June 30 meeting, uh Chairman Mariano asked for what is the total budget. You can see here the total budget, the operating piece of the budget increased by about or decreased by point eight percent. And the the biggest increase was our capital increase by 115 percent. And the reason for that are twofold. First is that we're anticipating many of the general obligation bond projects to be completed or to come online in fiscal twenty-one.

That is not that aggregate is not a sum of those tables of those uh trim Or of those millage rates. What it is is a sum of those millage rates divided by the assessed value of the county. Someone in Tallahassee thought that was vo very interesting, so we're required to present that figure to you. I don't know exactly. How we're gonna use that to make any any good decisions, but we're required to present that, so there it is. So with that I would ask that the county approve the tentative military agency
Several speakers Bob: Yes sir, I do. Moore: Okay. Then it's
