City of Box Elder Finance, Legal & Public Safety Committee · September 1, 2026

Summary

The committee forwarded a resolution establishing an estimated maximum 2027 property tax levy for Mead County ($572,213) and noted the 2.5% certified CPI factor and that county growth numbers are still pending and expected by Sept. 15.

Finance Officer Renee Baker explained the companion resolution for property in Mead County, stating the county's current estimated maximum levy at $572,213. Baker noted that the committee included the certified 2.5% CPI factor in both county resolutions and that staff is awaiting growth-number inputs from each county, expected around Sept. 15, which will be incorporated into final calculations.

A committee member moved and the committee seconded and approved forwarding the Mead County resolution to the city council for a public hearing. Committee members asked a clarifying question about whether the resolution would raise property taxes and Baker confirmed briefly that it would increase the levy by the certified CPI factor.
