It’s been over a month since the city of Emporia first proposed a joint task force involving local taxing authorities poised to research mill levy reduction options for all residents. Since that time, all three major taxing entities, the city, Lyon County and USD 253 Emporia as well as the Emporia Recreation Commission, have reviewed the proposed task force, but only one has indicated a desire to move forward with it, that being the entity that proposed it, the City of Emporia. For the others, discussions have been held but have either ceased or been tabled with no action taken or indication towards progression given.
