Council adopts certified tax rate of 0.000839 for FY2025-26
Summary
Spring City Council adopted Resolution 2025-08 to set the certified tax rate for fiscal year 2025-26. The measure passed after brief discussion about long-term revenue strategy.
Spring City Council voted to adopt a certified tax rate of 0.000839 for fiscal year 2025-26, approving Resolution 2025-08 during a special meeting.
Councilmember Randy Strait moved to adopt the certified rate and Courtney Sim seconded. The motion passed after a roll-call vote in which one councilmember recorded a dissenting vote.
City staff reported that the county calculates and proposes the certified rate as properties are revalued; the council did not request an increase and therefore did not proceed through the "truth in taxation" notification process. The mayor (unnamed in the transcript) described the county calculation process for the council.
Councilmember Marty McCain urged the council to give the matter more attention in the coming year, saying the city should take a closer look at taxation and revenue options to meet municipal needs. "I think this is an area that we probably need to put more time in coming for this coming year," McCain said, urging tighter ownership of tax planning.
The roll-call showed the measure passed; the transcript records one "no" vote by Ken Scribe (name appears in roll-call as spoken in the meeting). The council did not specify changes to spending linked to the adopted rate during the meeting.
