We have prepared Resolution #2011-864, which formally sets the Municipal
appropriations, establishes the tax levy, and establishes the 2011 tax rate. As a result of
certain City parcels of property being located within the Milton School District, Sections 5
and 6 are utilized to establish the different school tax levies and corresponding tax rates.
In summary, the Council approved a 2012 Municipal Budget (General Fund and Library),
which calls for a .42% increase in total expenditures, a 3.05% increase in the tax levy, and
a 5.64% decrease in the gross tax rate due to the city revaluation.
Suggested Motion
I move to approve Resolution #2011-864 “Adopting a Budget, Appropriating Funds,
Authorizing Expenditures and Levying a Tax Therefore by the City of Janesville for the
Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2012”.
