Changes in Monmouth County budget eliminate proposed tax increase for 2021
The Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners has announced that the 2021 county budget will not, as initially proposed, contain a $6.1 million increase in the tax levy to be paid by the county’s residential and commercial property owners.
On Feb. 11, the commissioners introduced a $453 million budget to fund the operation of the county in 2021. The budget included a tax levy of $317.6 million and represented a $6.1 million increase from the 2020 tax levy of $311.5 million.
The budget was not adopted and professionals in the Finance Department continued to evaluate the projected revenues and appropriations.
