By Carol Broeder/Arizona Range News
If you own property in Willcox, you will be paying more property tax next year.
The City of Willcox is notifying taxpayers of its intention to raise its primary property taxes over the last year's level.
The city is proposing an increase in primary property taxes of $9,291, or 16.66 percent more than last year.
The proposed tax increase will cause the city's primary property taxes on a $100,000 home to increase from $28.13 to $29.99, a change of $1.86.
This proposed increase is exclusive of increased primary property taxes received from new construction. The increase is also exclusive of any changes that may occur from property tax levies for voter-approved bonded indebtedness or budget and tax overrides.
All interested citizens are invited to a public hearing on the tax increase on Monday, Aug. 4 at 7 p.m. in Council Chambers, 207 W. Maley St.
The total amount to be raised by direct property taxes is $65,069 for the primary property tax, and $162,760 for the secondary property tax.
