The Commission took the action when they meet Monday. The budget contains an estimated tax rate of 38.601 mills, which is down 1.1 mills over this year.
The budget calls for the county to collect $5.7 million in local taxes, an about $10,000 decrease over this year.

The Commission will consider adoption of the budget following a public hearing at their August 24 meeting.
