What the record shows

The City's table puts the 2026 residential rate (class RT) at 1.727111%: a general tax rate of 1.574111% and an education rate of 0.153000%. The table has no separate county or regional rate.

The bill multiplies the home's assessed value by the rate for its class. An asking price is not an assessed value, and the class matters: the same table puts commercial property at 3.886552%.
