The McLeod County Board on Tuesday set a preliminary tax increase of 2.73 percent for 2016, which will generate about another $500,000 in revenue.
However, said Auditor-Treasurer Cindy Schultz, the overall tax rate is declining by about a quarter of a percent, because of increases in property values.
The net result, Schultz said, is that most property will not see an increase in their tax bills, despite the increased levy.
