ITEM SUMMARY:
The total 2022 tax levy request, per attached Ordinance No. 2022-0-0039, has been projected for the Fiscal Year
2023 budget at $4,380,452.65. The 2022 tax levy proposal of $4,380,452.65 represents a 4.9 percent increase
over the prior year tax levy.
The final 2022 tax rate has a direct correlation to the final equalized assessed valuation of Wayne and Winfield
townships, and therefore, may vary slightly from the projected rate of .5117 should the assessor’s estimates be
subject to modifications.
As reported to the City, the Wayne Township Assessor is projecting a 5.34% increase in assessed value and
$317,330 as estimated 2022 new construction. The Winfield Township Assessor has reported a 4.32% increase in
assessed value and $7,105,400 as estimated 2022 new construction.
ACTIONS PROPOSED:
Recommend to City Council approval of a 2022 tax levy request for General Corporate Purposes in the
amount of $4,380,452.65
COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION:
The Finance Committee recommended approval of the 2023 Budget with a 4.9% increase in the property
tax levy.
