The City of Redwater adopted a tax rate that will raise more taxes for maintenance and operations than last year's tax rate.
The tax rate will effectively be raised by 5.34 percent and will raise taxes for maintenance and operations on a $100,000 home by approximately $0.
Examples:
Tax levy on $100,000 home in Tax Year 2023: $181.10
Tax levy on $100,000 home in Tax Year 2024: $181.10
2024/2025 Revenues are only increasing due to new properties and increased values on current properties. The City of Redwater property tax rate did NOT increase.
