Raymore sets 2026 tax levy unchanged from 2025
Summary
City staff recommended and council approved a 2026 tax levy identical to 2025 (general fund 0.3702 per $100; park fund 0.0996; debt service 0.7170; total ~1.1868) and noted the filing deadline with the county clerk is Sept. 1.
The Raymore City Council approved the first reading of Bill 4048 on Aug. 10, setting the city's 2026 property tax levy unchanged from the prior year.
Lisa Williams told the council the levy calculations are required by the state and that the recommended levy will be filed with the county clerk by Sept. 1. Williams said the general fund rate is calculated at 0.3702 per $100 of assessed valuation, the park fund at 0.0996, and the debt-service levy at 0.7170, producing a total city levy of about 1.1868 per $100; she noted the overall levy did not change from 2025.
Councilmember Serco moved adoption of the first reading, Councilmember Burke seconded, and the motion passed unanimously, 7‑0. Staff said the FY27 budget to be presented at the Aug. 17 work session assumes the adopted levy.
