Tucson Standard

In accordance with A.R.S. § 42-17107, the Mayor and Council of the City of Tucson have announced their intention to raise primary property taxes over last year's level. The proposed increase is $64,923 or 0.34%. This means that for a $100,000 home, the primary property tax rate will be $43.11 under the new proposal. Without this proposed increase, the total taxes owed on a $100,000 home would have been $42.97.

This increase is exclusive of increased primary property taxes resulting from new construction and does not account for any changes that may occur from property tax levies for voter-approved bonded indebtedness or budget and tax overrides.

The public hearing on this matter will take place on Tuesday, June 4, 2024, at or after 5:30 p.m. The meeting will be held in-person at City Hall located at 255 W. Alameda St. More details regarding the format of the meeting and how interested persons can request to be heard are available in the agenda.

For Spanish translation services during the meeting, individuals can email BSD-MA@tucsonaz.gov. The meeting will also be broadcast live online for those who wish to view and listen remotely.

As required by A.R.S. § 42-17107(A)(1), notice of this proposed tax increase will be published in the Arizona Daily Star on Monday, May 20, 2024 and Monday, May 27, 2024.
