Columbus to Vote on Budget

12/3/11 – Columbus Administrators are pleased with the effort of City department heads in trimming the 2012 budget. Purchase of a new automated “time keeping” system and the refinancing of two debt service loans were also cited as important in keeping the mil rate near last year’s level. The final budget document will see an $8.31 per thousand dollar mil rate for the City’s portion of the tax. The total Budget with a $2.9 million dollar tax levy will go to the Council for approval on Tuesday (December 6th).
