Bryan City Council voted to set a proposed property tax rate of 0.624 per $100 valuation and scheduled public hearings on September 9 and September 16, 2025, to receive formal public comment before final adoption.
Council members said the rate is the maximum that could be adopted at final readings and that workshop discussions had already reviewed the fiscal impacts. "This is the absolute maximum that can be adopted," a council member said during the roll call. The roll‑call vote reflected approval and staff noted the statutory requirement to hold public hearings on the proposed rate prior to final adoption.
The council recorded no substantive debate in the excerpt provided and the mayor announced the vote passed. Councilmembers and staff encouraged interested residents to attend the scheduled hearings in September for further comment and to review budget materials when posted.
