Sioux Narrows/Nestor Falls Budget

Sioux Narrows/Nestor Falls Budget              07:41:24

 Good news for property owners in Sioux Narrows/Nestor Falls.

Town council there passed its 2009 budget this week and it calls for
a 12 percent decrease in the mill rate.

Bill Thompson is mayor of the community and says combined with education taxes, the overall reduction in the tax rate will be closer to
10 percent.

Thompson says they decided to reduce taxes this year because there
was such a big jump in assessments in lakefront property from the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation.
