Surprise Council to vote on primary property tax hike

Posted

The Surprise City Council is set to vote on possibly raising property taxes to raise more than half a million dollars at a special meeting Tuesday, June 6.

City officials want to raise the rate to 5.3%, which would mean primary property taxes on a $100,000 home would be $75.91, or $3.70 more than the current rate.

The vote is set for a special meeting at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 6, before the regular City Council meeting at City Hall, 16000 N. Civic Center Plaza.

The agendas for the meetings can be found here.

A live stream or broadcast of the meetings can be viewed at surpriseaz.gov/surprisetv and the Surprise City Gov Facebook page at facebook.com/cityofsurprise.

Cox channel 11 and Century Link channel 8513 will also carry the meeting live.
