(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission has approved for publication a proposed 2020 budget of nearly $12.9 million that calls for a more than one mill property tax levy decrease.
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 county's assessed valuation increased nearly $4 million to more than $148 million.
The Commission will consider adoption of the budget following a public hearing at their August 24 meeting.
