Murray, KY – The Henry County Commission plans to address a proposed increase to property taxes throughout the Tennessee County. Commissioners are considering a $0.15 increase which would raise the tax rate to 2.197% of assessed property value from the existing 2.047%. The increase would be included in the county's budget, due to come up for vote in tomorrow's session. The budget also includes a proposed $400 bonus for county employees in lieu of a cost of living increase. The commissioners' meeting is tomorrow at 4:30pm.
