$73 million county budget gets first look
SYCAMORE – The DeKalb County Finance Committee had its first glance at a proposed $73 million budget Wednesday for fiscal 2013.
The proposed budget is roughly $6 million less than last year because of a decline in federal grants
and plummeting property values.
The county’s assessed value is expected to decline by almost 9 percent, meaning the value of an average $200,000 house will fall to $182,000.
