City of Tower adopts 2026 budget and certifies 3% property tax levy
Summary
The council approved Resolution 2025-17 adopting the 2026 budget and certifying a 3% property tax levy to St. Louis County; the motion passed unanimously on Dec. 29, 2025.
The City of Tower council adopted the 2026 budgets and certified the final 2026 City of Tower property tax levy with a 3% levy increase that councilors had approved at the Dec. 8 regular meeting.
Councilor Bob Anderson moved to approve Resolution 2025-17; Councilor Kevin Norby seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The minutes state the new Clerk/Treasurer updated the budget to reflect the approved levy increase.
Why it matters: The certified levy sets the property-tax request the county will use for the city’s taxes in calendar year 2026 and determines revenue available for city operations and services.
What the minutes do not specify: The minutes do not include a line-item budget or the dollar amount of the levy increase; they note only the percentage increase (3%).
