(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission has adopted the 2020 county budget as published.
That came following a hearing Monday drawing no public comment.
The $11.3 million budget calls for a nearly half mill tax levy decrease.
The budget contains an estimated tax rate of 31.471 mills, which is to generate more than $6.2 million in revenue.
Even though the mill levy will decrease, the county will collect $174,000 in additional revenue due to a more than $8 million increase in the county’s assessed valuation.
