Village of Bible Hill sets budget and tax rates

At their Tuesday, April 19th meeting, Bible Hill Commissioners adopted their 2022-2023 budget and set property tax rates to raise the funds required to deliver municipal services in the Village. Property tax rates levied by the Village will remain unchanged, as follows (per $100 of assessment):

• residential rate of seventy cents ($0.70);
• residential (partial service) rate of fifty-two and one-half cents ($0.525); and
• commercial rate of eighty-seven cents ($0.87).

"This year’s budget continues to deliver services in the Village that residents expect in the community – parks, trails and playgrounds, streetlights, crossing guards, fire service, etc.; it advances our infrastructure renewal goals – the main focuses this year being a fire truck and sewer and sidewalk upgrades; and it also allows us to continue saving for planned capital needs in years ahead.” Commissioner Kevin Kennedy, Chair
