All right, well now call to order the public hearing for the 2026 budget adoption. 00:00:03
For the Floyd County Council, would everyone? 00:00:08
Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. 00:00:11
Pledge allegiance to the flag. 00:00:14
Of the United States of America and to the Republic which it stands. 00:00:16
One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 00:00:21
Is there anyone from the public that wishes to speak before we? 00:00:26
Get into discussion. 00:00:34
All right. 00:00:39
We will now go into the mining units. 00:00:42
Solid waste. Anyone here from solid waste? 00:00:45
I'll make a motion to accept the adoption of the 26. 00:00:50
2026 Budget for. 00:00:55
The binding unit for solemn waste second. 00:00:58
I have a motion a second for solid waste. 00:01:02
Budget. Any discussion? 00:01:04
Looking for this all in favor say aye. 00:01:07
Aye, any opposed? 00:01:10
That carries. 00:01:11
Georgetown. 00:01:12
Georgetown Fire. 00:01:14
He's here if we have questions. 00:01:23
Is there a motion for Georgetown fires? 00:01:24
Budget, uh. 00:01:27
I move that it be approved. 00:01:28
2nd, we have a motion a second for Georgetown Fire Districts budget. 00:01:30
Any discussion? 00:01:34
I'd like to know the rate at which they. 00:01:36
This budget is. 00:01:39
Going to be approved for. 00:01:41
And and this is the. 00:01:48
District, not the. 00:01:50
I'm sorry, yes, Fire district I've. 00:01:52
The fire territory territory, it says district on here, but this is the territory. It's the combined correct because the fire 00:01:54
district. 00:01:58
The provider unit. 00:02:03
I'm sorry, the fire district is the provider unit of the fire Territory, so therefore the fire Territory is in its budget. 00:02:06
OK, so you have submitted Baker Tilly prepared the. 00:02:13
Ordinance A resolution that for appropriation of tax rates. 00:02:17
We also had them prepare a estimate. 00:02:22
Tax rates. 00:02:26
And we believe the. 00:02:27
Estimate for the 26 tax rate. 00:02:30
Again, we don't know the. 00:02:33
That assess value and all the final. 00:02:35
Determination number The number that they gave me was. 00:02:37
.37. 00:02:40
.63730. 00:02:42
3738. 00:02:45
Which would be below the $0.40. 00:02:47
Any further questions? 00:02:54
Discussion. 00:02:55
All in favor of Georgetown. 00:02:57
Fired. Say aye. 00:02:59
Aye, any opposed? 00:03:01
That carries it. 00:03:02
New Albany Township. 00:03:04
He's here for questions. 00:03:08
I the question there is that this is just. 00:03:12
The capital. 00:03:16
Funds right? 00:03:18
And there is a property tax rate associated with that as well. 00:03:22
If it's free, I'm not here. 00:03:29
Yeah, Ruben it. 00:03:31
I can answer the question. 00:03:33
I can hear you. 00:03:36
So the my understanding is for the budget purpose here for New Albany Township. 00:03:39
It is to move over the. 00:03:45
Local income tax received the certified shares that will still flow in there and it used in arrears. 00:03:49
So that appropriation was to forward that forward to the territory, OK. 00:03:55
And back to the Georgetown right then. 00:04:00
That rate would be applied to everyone who lives in New Albany and in. 00:04:03
Georgetown. 00:04:08
Who? Correct, Everyone will have a unified right within the fire territory. 00:04:10
Right, which is Georgetown and Township. 00:04:14
And the rest is just for the payoff. 00:04:18
Little bit of death that. 00:04:23
The when they joined the territory, any debt that was established prior to the territory state. 00:04:25
Which looks like the special fire dad, but I'm not sure what the special fire is. 00:04:36
Professional Fire General is the general fund for fire districts. 00:04:41
And special fire debt would be a bond. Well yeah, I understand that. But why would they still be getting money? 00:04:45
Why would the New Albany Fire District still be getting a levee? 00:04:53
Or is it not a levy that's the money that's forwarded on, correct? It's only an appropriation. You'll see adopted budget and I 00:04:57
don't represent this unit, but what I see there, the adopted budget of 675,000 is the ability to take the funds received because 00:05:03
there's no adopted tax levy, that tax levy, right? Thank you. 00:05:09
You're right, OK. 00:05:16
Again, any further discussion on? 00:05:17
New Albany Township Fire. 00:05:20
All in favor say aye. 00:05:23
Aye, we didn't. Nobody made a motion. Oh, I'm sorry. 00:05:25
Is there a motion there may approve? 00:05:28
Take it we have a motion and a second. Any further discussion? 00:05:31
All in favor say aye. Any opposed that carries? 00:05:35
Hi, Leonard. 00:05:39
Highlander is here for questions. 00:05:42
Same question, what's the rate? 00:05:46
So unfortunately with the. 00:05:53
With the net assessment. 00:05:55
The assessment of the. 00:05:58
Assess the value of the. 00:05:59
Territory or I'm sorry of the. 00:06:01
District is not in yet. 00:06:03
It's an estimated right now 0.3. 00:06:05
.3. 00:06:10
OK. 00:06:13
Any further questions on Highlander? 00:06:17
I'll entertain a motion. 00:06:20
Move to be approved. 00:06:22
2nd we have a motion, a second for Highlander fire. 00:06:24

salary ordinance back with the budget, Is that correct? 00:07:33
OK, we've had that. 00:07:39
Issue in the past, but. 00:07:40
