MAYVILLE Village officials are giving local residents a slight break on their taxes.
On Tuesday, the Mayville Village Board approved its budget for the 2021-22 year. The approved budget for the general fund is $1,694,809, which is a slight increase from the current $1.64 million budget.
The new budget calls for a tax rate of $7.42 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. The current village tax rate is $7.55 per $1,000. The approved budget gives raises for different village employees. Most hourly employees received a 50 cent increase. There were no pay raises for elected officials. According to Mayor Kenneth Shearer the only major new purchase is a new plow truck for the highway department.
