Haven to hold required budget hearings Tuesday

Posted Sep 05, 2022 10:18 AM

HAVEN, Kan. —The City of Haven will hold its Revenue Neutral Rate and budget hearings at its meeting on Tuesday.

The budget was based on keeping the mill levy the same as it was last year at 60.851 mills. In 2022, that yields around $458,816.54. Because the City’s assessed valuation has increased from $7,540,732 to $8,065,691, in 2023, 60.851 mills will yield around $490,763.31.

Keeping the mill levy the same means the City will exceed the Revenue Neutral Rate. The motion to do that passed unanimously in July.

Also on the agenda will be bids for tree trimming in Haven, a resolution in support of a Moderate-Income Housing Grant Application, a look at the revised Financial Policies & Procedures Manual and prospective changes to an ordinance regarding golf carts and work site utility vehicles.

The council will also continue discussions on the ongoing pool related litigation with its attorney in an executive session.

The Haven City Council will meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday at the city offices at 120 South Kansas Avenue.
