Sep. 5--FORT WALTON BEACH -- While Okaloosa County has tentatively lowered its millage rate, Fort Walton Beach's rate may remain the same.

The city's 4.97 millage rate could be a major topic at a pair of budget hearings that must be held before Fort Walton Beach's 2006-2007 budget is voted on.

The first hearing is Wednesday.

The rate tentatively remains intact, even as city staff suggested lowering it to near 4.6.
