HENDERSON â The city managers in Henderson and Oxford have each submitted fiscal 2021-22 budget requests that would keep property tax rates in their cities right where they are now.
In Henderson, City Manager Terrell Blackmonâs budget request, if adopted by the City Council, would keep the tax rate at 71.2 cents per $100,000 of assessed value. He likewise proposed holding the line on water rates.
All told, heâs asking the council to approve $41.1 million in spending. While ânot all needs are met,â the budget offers âfurther positive steps in areas not funded previously [that] will help the city continue to grow and reach its full potential,â Blackmon said.
