600 positions cut in budget
HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY — There's $120 million less in this year's $3.5 billion county budget, meaning 600 fewer county jobs. County agencies face more cuts next year. The approved tax rate of 10.7614 mills keeps the county's streak of 15 consecutive years of reducing the millage rate alive. The tax rate is equivalent to about $10.76 per $1,000 of property value.
