The property tax levy is an increase of 3.99% from last year. The Budget total amount of money the county will spend in 2024 and the property tax levy is the amount of the budget they will raise in local property taxes. State and Federal resources will cover part of the balances of the budget. One of the biggest challenges for the county with the new budget is County Labor.
