HORACE The fast-growing town of Horace is continuing to work on special assessment changes after a tumultuous year during which residents took issue with rising taxes and recalled two City Council members.
After a special Horace City Council meeting about special assessment issues Wednesday night, July 28, Mayor Kory Peterson said the biggest complaint last year was that town property owners each received a special assessment averaging about $460 to pay for the new roundabout on 76th Avenue next to the new middle school and a high school that is under construction.
