Madison aldermen adopt FY2025 ad valorem tax levies after public hearing
Summary
At a Sept. 3 public hearing with no public comment, the Board of Aldermen unanimously adopted a resolution fixing the FY2025 ad valorem tax levies for real, personal, vehicle and public utility property in the City of Madison.
Mayor Pro Tempore Guy Bowering opened a public hearing on the City of Madison’s proposed Fiscal Year 2025 budget and tax levies and asked for public comment; no members of the public spoke and the hearing was closed.
Following the hearing, Alderman Sandra Strain moved to adopt a resolution fixing the ad valorem tax levies for real, personal, vehicle and public utility property for taxes for the City of Madison. Alderman Tawanna Tatum seconded the motion, and the board voted unanimously in favor. Mayor Pro Tempore Bowering declared the motion carried; the resolution is attached in the official minutes as Exhibit A.
The hearing record shows no public objections were raised during the hearing. No levy rates or revenue totals were read into the record during the minutes; the resolution itself is included as Exhibit A to the meeting minutes for inspection. The board took the action as its formal decision on the city’s tax levies for the coming fiscal year.
The board moved on to routine business and other agenda items after the vote. The minutes do not record a schedule for further public hearings or an appeal window in the oral record; interested parties should consult Exhibit A and the city clerk’s office for the formal levy language and any associated timelines.
