(KMZA)--The 2019 Nemaha County, Kansas budget has been adopted as published.
The Nemaha County Commission took the action Monday following a public hearing drawing a question one of several county residents in attendance.
Freda Dobbins asked about Parks and Recreation fund. Commissioners said its funded by an alcohol tax, with the proceeds primarily going to United 4 Youth in their effort to stop underage drinking.
The $13.5 million budget contains a nearly 2.6 mill property tax levy decrease, with an estimated tax rate of 43.095 mills.
The budget calls for the county to collect nearly $7.9 million in local taxes.
Even though the mill levy will decrease, the county will collect nearly $367,000 in additional taxes over last year due to a more than $18 million increase in the county’s assessed valuation.
