On July 11th the Department of Local Government Finance made its final determination for the establishment of an initial maximum levy for a fire protection territory. The conclusion states that the DLGF finds that the LaPaz-North Fire Territory complies with the procedural obligations under the Indiana Code in establishing the Territory. The units published notices, conducted required public hearings, made information available to the public, and adopted identical ordinances in the timeframe of the Indiana Code.
The DLGF also found that the units provided information sufficient to account for the territory’s calculation of an operating fund's initial maximum levy.
Therefore, the DLGF approved an initial max levy for the LaPaz North Twp. Fire Territory operating fund in the amount of $1,289,916 for pay-2025. This amount is equal to the proposed pay-2025 fire territory operating fund budget of $1,248,080 less miscellaneous revenue of $65,400.
