Mayor Silvestrini called the meeting to order.
1. Discussion and Consideration of Ordinance 24-31, Determining the Rate of Tax and
Levying Taxes Upon All Real and Personal Property within Mfflcreek (the Resulting
Tax is the Same Amount of Tax Previously Collected by Millcreek and Will Not
Result in a Tax Increase to Residents of Millcreek) for the Tax Year Beginning July
1, 2024 and Ending June 30, 2025
Mayor Silvestrini said the purpose of the special meeting was to deterinine the rate of tax
in Millcreek which is something tl'iat state law requires before the council's next regular
meeting (June 24'). The tax rate is based upon an amount of money that Millcreek levies
as tax divided by the taxable value of real property in the city with some other small
factors involved, such as motor vehicle tax. Then there is a certified tax rate, which is a
multiplier, which times the value of property less any exemptions equals the amount of
real property tax that residents pay. The certified tax rate shows that in order to achieve
the amount of tax revenue that Millcreek has previously levied, which is $11,911,573, the
amount to be multiplied by Millcreek's taxable value to collect that amount of money
would be a tax rate of O.001344. That is a reduction in the certified tax rate from what was
levied the prior year; last year was O.001431. The budget for Fiscal Year 2025 does not
require a city property tax increase for residents. He said the public could reach out to him
with questions. He asked for public coi'nu'nent. There was none.
