AGGREGATE <br />Administrator Baird stated that this was a benchmark millage rate that no one in <br />the County pays; it is an averaging of all the taxing funds that fall under the Board of <br />County Commissioners. After noting that no vote was required on this, he announced the <br />proposed aggregate millage of 5.1628, 8% below rollback. <br />Commissioner O'Bryan asked whether the County's millage rate for the General <br />Fund would be one of the lowest in the State, if the other 67 Counties adopt their <br />proposed budgets, and learned from Budget Director Jason Brown that the County would <br />have the lowest General Fund millage, with that provision. <br />6.
