Brown County Executive Troy Streckenbach will aim for same tax levy with 2012 budget. (Green Bay Press-Gazette, 8/18/2011)
Excerpt: Brown County residents likely won't be asked to pay more in property taxes when County Executive Troy Streckenbach releases his proposed 2012 budget in early October.
How that might impact county services, however, is something he and county supervisors have yet to determine.
"My opinion is that we should keep the tax levy at the current level of about $82 million," Streckenbach said Wednesday. "And we need to do what we can to pay down our debt … while making sure we're prepared for 2013."
The executive is due to propose a budget to the County Board Oct. 1. The board then can make changes, though they are subject to potential vetoes.
