Tax Levies ~ County, Schools, NTC, Municipalities

When budgets are finalized usually in November, counties, schools, tech schools and municipalities determine the amount of property taxes needed from citizens--Tax Levy. The Tax Rate or "Mill Rate" comes from dividing the levy by total property value. The county and school levies are "apportioned" to each municipality based on the town, city and village equalized value. If one town’s equalized value increases faster than others, it’s total tax levy will also rise.
