Payable 2026 Tax Levy Hearing Date
Background:
Attached for the School Board's information is a calendar which outlines the 2026 payable property tax schedule in detail.
School Districts are required to discuss the levy and budget at a regularly scheduled board meeting and allow the public to speak.
The meeting to discuss the levy and budget can take place at any point after November 24th but before the final levy is adopted. The meeting must take place at 6:00 p.m. or later. The district can adopt the final levy at the same meeting they allow the public to speak.
The date of the regularly scheduled board meeting at which the levy and budget will be discussed must be announced at the board meeting when the proposed property tax levy is certified and also included in the summary of these proceedings published in the official newspaper of the district. The date of the board meeting where the levy and budget will be discussed must also be provided to the district’s home county auditor for inclusion on the Truth in Taxation notices to be sent to property owners.
The Payable 2026 Tax Levy provides property tax revenue for the 2026-27 school year.
