Levelland council holds hearings on FY2026 budget and tax rate; little public comment
Summary
At a Sept. 8 meeting, the Levelland City Council held public hearings on the proposed FY2025–26 budget and the proposed tax rate; no one spoke at the budget hearing and one resident spoke on the tax rate. Council was reminded the budget will be finalized on Sept. 15, 2025.
Mayor Breann Buxkemper opened public hearings Monday on the proposed fiscal year 2025–26 budget and on a proposed tax rate. City Manager James Fisher told the council that "final approval is set for Monday, September 15, 2025," and no action was taken at the Sept. 8 meeting.
The budget hearing closed at 6:10 p.m. with no speakers; the tax-rate hearing was opened at 6:11 p.m. and one resident spoke before the hearing closed at 6:12 p.m. Council did not vote on either item at the meeting; both remain on the agenda for the Sept. 15 meeting. The hearings provided public input and formal notice required under state law.
