Coffeyville residents will soon see lower taxes after the city commission approves a large cut in the mill levy.

 

 At this week's city commission meeting, commissioners approved the 2025 budget. Mayor Alec Hendryx reads the resolution.

 

Commissioner Don Edwards says the budget discussion was, at times, a contentious issue, but he thinks the commission made the right decision for the city and for taxpayers.

 

In other business, commissioners also voted to approve a contract with Swindell Excavation for the demolition of 13 structures in the city.
