"The Department of Revenue has established a ‘sequence of events’ and ‘assignment of reporting responsibilities’ for the county, school districts, and cities to follow in establishing public budget hearings." Timelines: Keep in mind that if our proposed maximum for Pay 2026 is less than the Pay 2025 levy, we are not required to hold a truth in taxation hearing. We will not know our Pay 2026 levy amount until later this fall. Even though we may not need to hold a hearing, we still need to set a public hearing date at tonight’s meeting, in order to keep within the requirements and deadlines of the school district levy limitation and certification calendar. |
