Slight decrease in city taxes- Budget hearing scheduled for March 24

                The Clarion City Council moved closer to putting the final touches and approving its fiscal year 2020-2021 budget at the meeting last week. They will hold a public hearing on March 24 at 4:35 pm to approve and possibly finalize the budget.

                The proposed budget for the upcoming year (which can be seen by clicking on Legals in the red bar above) would set the city tax rate at $17.903 per $1000 of taxable property value. That is a slight decrease from last year’s rate of $17.93. The levy rate for ag land is $3.00 per $1000.
