9 Dollars a year

The tax impact on a $75,000 home will be $9 annually.

If Question 1 is approved by voters, the operating levy will be reduced to $700/pupil unit and taxes will decrease. If Question 2, the bond referendum, as recommended by the task force, is approved by voters, taxes will increase by slightly more than the decrease in the operating levy.

How do we Compare with our Neighbors?

Our school taxes are lower or comparable to most of our neighbors and would remain in the same position if both questions were approved.

Ag2School Tax Credit

State law requires bond levies to apply to the entire farm property. We recognize this project will represent a significant investment on the part of our farm families, and we thank you. The state recognizes the impact and instituted the Ag2School tax credit - a 55% credit in 2021, 60% in 2022 and 70% in 2023 and beyond. The tax credit applies to current and future referendums for all property classified as Agricultural (excluding the house, garage and one acre).
