Episode Details

Property tax bills could see a major jump next year as the city council prepares to raise assessments for tree and streetlight services — a 30% increase that could cost homeowners an extra $30 annually on average. The tree fund, frozen since 2014, is getting a bump from $1.08 to $1.68 per front foot, while streetlights stay at 92 cents — together pushing the total from $2 to $2.60 per front foot. City officials say rising operational costs, especially salaries, threaten the tree fund’s stability, making this hike essential. A final vote looms, with new rates set to appear on 2027 and 2028 tax statements.
