Polk County Sets Preliminary Levy; Tax Info Now Available Via Electronic Delivery

Crookston, MN — The Polk County Board of Commissioners set their preliminary 2023 tax levy at the end of September with a proposed increase of 5.5%. The proposed levy increase comes after two-days of budget meetings with the department heads. Polk County Commissioner Joan Lee, who joined the KKCQ Food for Thought Program, says navigating and trimming the various department budgets into a reasonable amount can be a challenging process.

A truth-in taxation public hearing is set for December 13^th at 6pm and the final levy will likely be approved on December 20^th.

Also, Polk County residents can now get all their tax information, including statements and more, via electronic delivery, according to Commissioner Lee.
