With those city taxrs remaining the same this year, it's the anticipated costs down the road that's giving the Hendersonville City Council some uneasy feelings.

The property tax rate will stay as is, and remain at 49 cents per $100 of property valuation for the 2019-20 fiscal year that begins July 1st, the council determined during a budget workshop held on Thursday.

There are four top priorities city officials must consider in the coming years:

Streetscape improvements to Seventh Ave, the police headquarters, employee medical insurance benefits for departments, and a hefty increase for fire protection facilities and personnel.

City Council is scheduled to meet again at 8:30am May 3rd to further discuss the budget.
