ROGERSVILLE - Hawkins County commissioners will be considering a $91 million budget and 22-cent property tax hike when they meet Monday.

The property tax increase is estimated to generate slightly more than $1.6 million in additional revenue, with $880,000 of the new money earmarked for the sheriff's office and jail budgets.

Under the spending plan, the sheriff's office would add four new deputies and a secretary, with a jail administrative position and 19 additional guards hired to staff the new jail facility.

The commission meets at 7 p.m. in the main courtroom of the Hawkins County Courthouse.

Information about the meeting will be posted Monday night.
