The District of Houston is looking at a 2.7 per cent overall tax increase that will bring in a little over $44,000 extra for the district.
The 2016 tax levy was $828,036 – for 2017 it’s estimated to be $3,931,401.
That means commercial and residential would see roughly an extra 2 to ten dollars on a yearly bill.
Seventeen capital and operating projects were approved for the 2017 budget totalling over $405,000.
Public consultation for the budget will be April 18th before it’s up for adoption on May 1st.
