PLYMOUTH — The Marshall County Commissioners voted unanimously in their meeting on Monday to urge the Marshall
County Council to begin the process of discussions on the current local income tax that pays the bond on the Marshall County Jail.
The discussion began with the county’s financial consultant — Steve Dalton — asking for permission to begin work on a new type of financial projection for the county that considers what he called “what if” options.
He said the format would not be a “static document” and would be useful given the number of changes made to taxes in the current legislature. According to Commissioner Jesse Bohannon,
President of the Commissioners Stan Klotz then asked for the motion to urge the Council to begin discussions on the current tax for the jail. The county is close to paying off the bond, and discussion of how to maintain it and other expenses will be critical regarding how they handle the end of that tax.
Bohannon did have one last bit of information.
