Determining a Budget

Each year, the Board of Directors of the Papio-Missouri River NRD reviews all NRD program and project activities and determines a budget necessary to carry out our mission. NRDs in Nebraska possess limited taxing authority amounting to less than two percent of property taxes collected within our NRD area.

FY 2010 Budget

The Papio-Missouri River Natural Resources District Board has approved a FY 2010 General Operating Budget.

The Fiscal Year 2010 Budget calls for a property tax levy of .032756 per $100 of valuation. The FY 2009 levy was .033753. The .032756 levy would mean that the owner of property valued at $100,000 would pay a total of $32.75 in property taxes this year to support various NRD projects and programs compared to $33.75 last year.

The draft budget calls for total estimated expenditures of $66.8 million. Of this amount, an estimated $16.6 million in revenue would come from property taxes. The remainder of revenue will be received through State of Nebraska and federal funding for projects, and special assessments.
