Decreased valuation, fuel prices result in levy increase

A special meeting of the Jewell County Commissioners was Friday to consider the 2009 budget. Commissioners Doyle Alcorn, Dwight Frost and Steve Greene were present. Carla Waugh, county clerk, Randy Hoffmeier and Jerry Pugh of Bartlett, Settle & Edgerle were also present. It was decided to hold the county budget hearing at 10 a.m. Aug. 11.

The valuation has decreased $1,094,780 so to maintain the budget at the current amount, the levy must increase 3.3 mills. An additional levy increase of 6.337 is the result of rising fuel costs. Combined this makes a total levy increase of 9.637 mills.
