The numbers are in and they are very positive. Sweetwater County Assessor Pat Drinkle announced today ( Monday) that the counties assessed valuation is up 12 percent from last year. The valuation determines the amount of tax dollars local entities will receive during the current fiscal year. Drinkle says the assessed valuation is 2.853 billion dollars, up from 2.5 billion dollars. The counties minerals industry makes up just over 2 billion dollar of the total. School district number one in Rock Springs saw their valuation increase 10.5 percent to 1.7 billion dollars, while school district number two in Green River saw a 12 percent increase to 947 million dollars. The numbers were released today after the certification process was completed by the State board of equalization.
