Saturday, November 13th, the FFA will man the recycling center next to the track. We have a good amount of help available on these 2nd Saturday morning collections and would like to be busier. Let the FFA help unload your aluminum, plastic, cardboard, magazines, newspapers & more.
Please clean any cardboard by removing plastic, styrofoam, other packing materials before breaking it down and putting it in the trailer. If the trailer is full, please come back with your cardboard at a later time. Thank you.
Thank you, Veterans!

It's official: the Fulton County Budget Commission IS rolling back the 2008 Pettisville Schools Bond Levy by 1 mill. Since 2008, the Bond Levy has been reduced to 5.8 mills from the original 7.36 mills. If the proposed 5-Year PI levy passes, since the 1 mill reduction in the Bond Levy is now approved, the net increase in taxes will be 1.5 mills for the 2022 tax collection. ️
What does this mean? Pettisville Schools is proposing a 2.5 mill levy, but taxpayers would only pay 1.5 mills more than they are now. Instead of this levy increasing taxes by $ 87.50 for the owner of a $100,000 home, it would increase by $52.50.
