CRESTVIEW — The Okaloosa Board of County Commissioners will meet to set the county's tentative millage rate for fiscal year 2018-2019.
The public meeting is 1:30 p.m. July 30 at Crestview City Hall, 198 Wilson St. N.
The current rate as listed at http://www.co.okaloosa.fl.us is 3.4308 mills, with one mill equal to "$1 for every $1,000 of taxable property value – these are ad valorem taxes."
Ad valorem property taxes combine with other funds to create the county budget and represents less than 20 percent of the entire budget.
