    Riley County adjusts budget proposal to 13% tax rise for average homeowner

    After initially proposing a 2026 budget increase which would raise property taxes by 17% for the average homeowner, Riley County officials on Monday lowered the proposed increase to 13%.

    Commissioners on Monday held their second budget work session, proposing a mill rate of 40.874, an increase from last year’s 37.953 mills. A mill is $1 in tax for every $1,000 in assessed, taxable property value.

    Under this proposed rate, the owner of a $100,000 property who paid $436.42 in 2025 would pay $493.55 on a home now valued at $105,000 in 2026, based on an average increase of 5% for existing single-family homes in Riley County.
