May 2016

Carlee has proposed no changes to garbage fees or garbage collection, for now. His plan would increase the property tax rate by 0.43 cents, which is about a 1 percent increase.

Combined with recommended increases in water and sewer fees, the owner of a home with a taxable value of $141,100 – the city’s median price – would pay an additional $36.55 in taxes and fees annually.

The owner of a house valued at $300,000 would pay about $44 more in taxes and water and sewer fees.
