Harvey council proposes maximum property tax dollars/rate and sets public hearing for March 23
Summary
The Harvey City Council voted to propose the maximum property tax dollars/rate and scheduled a public hearing on the proposed property tax for Monday, March 23, 2026 at 6:00 p.m. The motion was recorded as all ayes.
At its Feb. 9, 2026 meeting, the Harvey City Council voted to propose the maximum dollars/rate for the city’s property tax. The motion was made by Council Member Dennis Seibert and seconded by Council Member Donald Nilius; the minutes record the vote as "all ayes."
The council also set a public hearing on the proposed property tax for Monday, March 23, 2026 at 6:00 p.m., to be held at the location recorded in the meeting notice. The minutes state the council proposes the "max dollars/rate" but do not specify the exact dollar amount or rate change that will be proposed at the hearing.
Why it matters: proposing the maximum dollars or rate is a procedural step that sets the ceiling the council may adopt. A public hearing is required to allow residents to comment before final action. The minutes do not include the proposed levy amount, estimated tax-rate impact on property owners, or any staff presentation providing those calculations.
What happens next: the council will hold the public hearing March 23, 2026 at 6:00 p.m.; the minutes do not record subsequent steps or dates for final adoption.
