Gordonville trustees OK tax rate

The village of Gordonville board of trustees recently met and proposed to set the village tax rate at 0.4780 cents per $100 valuation, the same as 2002. The assessed tax will be due on Dec. 1 and will be delinquent on Jan. 1.

No comments were received from the public on the tax rate.

The city attorney read bill 263 regarding the 2003 tax rate. The first and second readings were approved, and the ordinance was passed.

Sheila Gross submitted the treasurer's report with a village balance of $119,824.76, which was accepted. Action on other city ordinances was deferred until the next meeting.

Gross was also selected for a scholarship to attend the Missouri Municipal League convention in Kansas City, Mo. The scholarship will pay for the majority of her expenses.

The board discussed the sales tax holiday. They will review it again later.
