Audubon City Council sets Public Hearing for Property Tax Levy

City Clerk Joe Foran said the tax levy for Fiscal 24 with that increase would be $19.82 per $1,000. He said the council was trying to keep the levy rate down, but insurance premiums and salaries going up made increases necessary.

A public hearing on the city’s Max Tax Levy was held on Tuesday, and while there were individuals on hand, none had questions or comments on that levy, and there were no written comments or questions received.

According to the published proposed property tax levy, “increases in wages, benefits, and liability insurance,” contributed along with a decrease in taxable valuations.

The total city tax rate will also include the voted general fund levy, debt service levy and capital improvement reserve levy.
