Brussels taxpayers will have
another month to hold onto their
money before having to pay their
June tax installment this. year.
Village council agreed Monday
night to postpone the date for the
June installment from June 1 to
June 30 because of the delay in the
reassessment program for county
wide market-value assessment.
Because of the reassessment, the
tax bills will not be ready for the
earlier deadline. Council had the
option of delaying the tax date or
going to a second interim billing.
Hugh Hanly, clerk-treasurer
said the village will be able to
manage the cashflow situation,
despite the requirement to pay
allocations from the school board
and the county, because several
unconditional grants have come in
early. The new tax dates will be
June 30, Sept. 2 and Dec. 2.He****

meeting next Monday night. Mr.
Hanly said it is difficult to calculate
what the village’s actual tax dollar
increase will be because of the
reassessment. Brussels will go
from $800,000 in assessment
under the old system to $18 million
with the market value assessment,
with a corresponding drop in the
mill rate. Council will be unable to
tell what the real tax bill will be for
local residents however until the
county and school board mill rates
are set. These rates will be set by
the senior levels and will just be
tacked onto the local bill under the
new system.
