I’m happy to have voted in favor of Brown County’s 2027 proposed budget, which lowers the county property tax rate by 12 cents, from $2.66 to $2.54 per $1,000 of assessed value which is a 4.5% reduction! Since the proposed 2025 budget, I’ve voted to lower the rate by 50 cents, from $3.04 to $2.54… a 16.4% decrease.
This budget continues our commitment to paying down debt, investing in roads and bridges, supporting law enforcement and public safety, and improving flood prevention and water quality while maintaining essential county services.
My priorities remain Strong, Safe, Affordable. I’ll continue fighting for responsible spending, lower taxes, safer communities, and a stronger Brown County while respecting your hard-earned tax dollars.
I'm honored to put forth a budget we worked hard on that prioritizes a sustainable, long-term approach which better aligns County revenue with the actual cost of delivering those services.
