City Lowers Property Tax Rate for the 2011-12 Fiscal Year

January 1, 2012

The City Council voted June 22 to lower property taxes for the third time in four years. It was noted at the meeting, however, that the overall property taxes still have the potential to increase, since the City’s portion only accounts for approximately 20 percent of the property tax bill, which includes taxing from the school district, county, and others.
