Voters in the Kuna Rural Fire District will be asked to approve a new, $1.1 million levy to expand its level of service to this quickly growing community.
The Kuna Rural Fire District is asking voters to approve a permanent annual levy override of $1.1 million which, if approved, means the fire district would be authorized to collect that and its current approximate $1.9 million in property taxes. In total, the fire district would be able to collect about $3.1 million in property taxes starting January 2020, if the levy override measure is approved.
The additional money would be used to hire more full-time personnel and replace expiring equipment.
The tax rate is estimated to increase by $60, making the levy rate an estimated $182 per $100,000 of taxable property value.
