An ordinance levying millage taxes on cities, the county and school, fire and improvement districts for 2020 highlights the Baxter County Quorum Court’s agenda Tuesday evening at 6. This action is taken annually during the quorum court’s November session.A review of this year’s proposed ordinance compared to the previous document one year ago indicates no changes for tax millage levies for personal and real property among the 35 entities.

The court is also set to take action on five other ordinances appropriating or reappropriating funding. The funding includes the budgets of the sheriff’s department, the juvenile services department, the prosecuting attorney’s department and the Baxter County Health Unit. In addition, the court will consider a transfer from the clerk’s election grant into the law enforcement clerk’s contract fund.

The court will also be asked to confirm appointments and reappointments from Judge Mickey Pendergrass to the Veterans Advisory and Library boards.

The session will be held in the second floor courtroom of the Baxter County Courthouse. To view a livestream of the meeting, click here.
