ALBANY – Albany-area voters on Saturday approved a renewal of a 10-mill property tax that would raise about $447,000 a year for Fire Protection District No. 1.

With all but one precinct reporting unofficial results, the proposal was winning by a three-to-one margin. 

For a home valued at $100,000, the property tax will be $100 a year. The tax renewal proposal covers a decade beginning next January.
