We don't have county taxes where I'm from, we have state and town/city/village (aka "municipality") taxes. Each municipal department - education, police, public works, the Town Hall offices, etc - each have their own budgets. But the property tax you pay includes the budgets for all of those departments. It's one tax. Much easier on the brain, when you consider it all one singular property tax. Unless you're saying you have to send two checks, one for education and one for everything else?
