Public Hearing

Hemphill County Commissioners are inviting taxpayers to a public hearing on the proposed tax rate and budget for fiscal year 2023-24. The hearing will begin at 9 am tomorrow, Monday, August 14, in the Commissioners Court meeting room.

The proposed tax rate of $0.450000/$100 is unchanged from last year’s rate. It will, however, bring in more revenue that last year’s rate did, due to an approximately $100 million increase in Hemphill County’s taxable values.

The Hemphill County Commissioners will hold a public hearing on at 9 am on Monday, August 14, to discuss and hear public comment on the proposed 2023-2024 fiscal year budget. The hearing will be held in the Commissioners Court meeting room #204 at the Hemphill County Courthouse, 400 Main, in Canadian. The public is welcome to attend.
