The Mayor and Council of the City of Tucson have announced their intention to increase primary property taxes, as required by A.R.S. § 42-17107. The City is proposing a tax increase of $64,923 or 0.34% over last year's level. This would result in a primary property tax rate of $43.11 on a $100,000 home, compared to $42.97 without the proposed increase.
