This year’s budget represents a 20.96% increase over FY 22 budget and a 5.9% increase over FY23.

Added Overrides of   $1,531,339 are requested as well.  The annual increased tax impact of these four overrides  will cost property owners with  ongoing and perpetual additions to property taxes.

  • Assessed value at $873,179 (average) = $480.27 annual increase to base tax
  • Assessed value at $500,000 (common) = $275.26  annual increase to base tax

This tax impact is incomplete and does not include the overall increase compounded by inflation, assuming modest 2.0% inflation target suggested by the Feds.  Over a 10-year period, the cost of these overrides will be $1,871,104 in this scenario.
