#16 Minerva Park – Proposed Tax Levy (Renewal)
This measure proposes renewing a 3.2 mill property tax levy for current expenses in the Village of Minerva Park. The levy would cost approximately $59 per $100,000 of the county auditor’s market value and would remain in place for 5 years beginning in 2026. A renewal maintains the existing tax rate if approved.PRO:The Village of Minerva Park provides services such as policing, recreation, and infrastructure that support residents’ daily needs and quality of life. Supporters say renewing the levy would help maintain these services and public amenities, which are available to all residents.CON:Property taxes have increased in recent years as housing values have risen. Property taxes add to the cost of owning or renting property and may influence housing affordability or development decisions. These taxes may also place a greater financial burden on some residents, including renters, who may experience higher housing costs as a result.
