BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C.—On Tuesday night, the Berkeley County School Board voted 5-to-3 to approve an approximately 11 percent millage increase.
The increase comes after board members finalized its 2015-2016 general fund budget.
The current millage rate stands at 142.9. The new rate increases that number by 17 mills.
This means that if you own a vehicle valued at approximately $20,000—taxpayers can expect to pay approximately an extra $20 per year.
For homeowners with a house valued at $150,000—they can expect to pay about an extra $150 per year.
Sally Wofford, Mac McQuillin and Phillip Obie voted against the budget.
