VII.F. Recommend Approval of the Truth in Taxation Hearing Date
Description:
The district no longer needs to set up a special meeting to hold the truth in taxation hearing, it can now be held in conjunction with a regular meeting, but before the final levy is adopted.  We need to allow anyone who comes to speak about their taxes to talk.  The district still needs to notify the county auditors so they can put the information on the notices that are sent out.  The hearing must take place before we can approve the final levy certification; we can do this at the same meeting provided that we let people talk if they wish to be heard at the hearing.  Thus we could hold the hearing prior/in conjunction with the December 8, 2025 meeting.     

______ recommended approval of the truth in taxation hearing date of December 8, 2025; ____ seconded; motion carried/failed.
 
Subject:
