Brookhaven recently finalized its first-year budget, a $16.5 million spending plan, by setting a 2.85 millage rate.

The owner of a home valued at $200,000 will pay about $171 annually in city taxes under the rate.

The budget includes money to reimburse DeKalb County for providing police and parks service since Brookhaven incorporated in December. The two sides are still negotiating the cost for those services.

Brookhaven plans to launch a police force July 31 and take over parks this fall.
