At its meeting on Tuesday, the Iron County Board of Supervisors approved the budget after a public hearing. The just over $21.4 million budget includes a millage that will result in just over $6 million being taken in. TheDailyGlobe reports the new millage rate is 33 cents lower than the last one due to a change in the fair market value of county property. At that ssame meeting, the board also approved a study of the wages and benefits of county employees, at cost of $25,000. The study, according to board chair Larry Youngs, is to give the county with a baseline from which to operate in comparison to other counties. Due to the holidays, the next regular meeting of the board of supervisors will be on December 11th.
