RISING SUN â With plans to hold the property tax rate at 46 cents per $100 of assessed value Rising Sun officials are trying to find ways to do more with less in the Fiscal 2022 budget.
The new budget only gives Rising Sun another $25,000 more than the current budget. Commissioner Dave Warnick noted there are line items in the new plan, which were absent in the FY 2021 budget because of the uncertainties surrounding the pandemic.
âThereâs a lot of things we didnât spend money on in 2020 ... like Sunfest and Spooktacular,â Warnick said.
Rising Sun will open bids June 23 on an aggressive paving project for which the town has budgeted nearly $1 million. Thatâs expected to address the parking lot at Valley View Village off of East Main Street.
