Review the Proposed Budget and Tax Rate

If you haven’t reviewed the proposed budget and tax rate, check them out! City Council will consider them for approval next week at the September 13, 2022 meeting.

Review the Fiscal Year 2022-2023 proposed budget.

Proposed Budget and Tax Rate Highlights:

-The proposed tax rate of $0.518731 per $100 valuation is lower than the current tax rate of $0.5800.

-The proposed tax rate is lower than the no new revenue rate of $0.519193.

-The proposed tax rate represents the lowest proposed tax rate since at least 1990.

-Total proposed expenditures represent an increase of approximately 11.27% over the current year's adopted budget. Fully funding the City's Capital Replacement Fund and Enterprise Solutions Replacement Fund are the primary factors contributing to this increase.

-If the expenses to fully fund the Replacement Funds are subtracted, total expenditures increased by only 2.66%. In an inflationary period of nearly 9%, City staff is pleased to present a budget that allows us to provide the services our residents expect while also keeping expenditures down.

-The proposed budget was developed as if Rule 3.334 were in effect.
