The Charter limits the levy increase to 6.5% with a simple majority or up to 9% with a 4/5ths super majority unless <br />otherwise excluded (EDA, referendums and debt service/capital levies are excluded from the charter limit). Each <br />1% levy increase is an additional $74,721. The state has certified Local Government Aid (LGA) for 2026 at <br />$1,033,559. <br /> <br />The City Council must adopt a maximum preliminary tax levy by September 30th, and submit it to the County <br />Auditor. Once this amount is set, the levy cannot be increased but can be lowered. The final levy will be adopted <br />on or about December 8, 2025. <br />
