For the third year in a row, Henderson County residents will not see a property tax rate increase. County Manager Steve Wyatt provided a brief introduction for the 2021-22 fiscal year budget at Monday’s Board of Commissioners meeting. The budget proposal suggests keeping the tax rate at $0.561 per $100 of property valuation. Property taxes make up the largest source of revenue for the county, with sales tax coming in second. The proposed budget calls for $166.7 million in expenditures, with education and public safety coming with the largest price tags. The proposed expenditures are over $5.1 million higher than the fiscal year 2021 budget of $161.5 million.
