Conclusions: The new revenue stream from the settlement will help pay for the operating expenses that were cut during this lawsuit It does not give us the ability to borrow more money Madison City residents pay the same taxes regardless of the county; however, the value of the taxes in Limestone County is 40% less than in Madison County
