Tax bills will be going out and I think I remember you telling me once that we're looking at some of the smallest rate increases since World War. I. Yeah, that's right. Good memory. Yeah. Yeah. So Washington county, our county portion of our tax bill, the tax rate itself will be the lowest since before World War I again. and it's dropping significantly. So when I started with the county in 2013, it was about $2.88, $2.88 a thousand. This budget I've proposed, it'll be $1.40. So a pretty substantial decrease. (15:08–15:18)
