Huntsville proposes 4.87% tax increase for 2026

Friday, 7 November 2025 09:53

This is year two of "The Mayor's Budget"

Huntsville council will review the 2026 Mayor’s Budget at a special meeting on November 13th at 9 a.m.

The budget, the second year of a two-year plan, proposes a $1.67 million increase to fund day-to-day services and projects, keeping the estimated tax rate rise at 4.87 per cent.

For a home assessed at $300,000, that’s an extra $73 next year. Mayor Nancy Alcock says the multi-year approach gives staff and council more foresight for planning.

Municipal taxes support roads, parks, recreation, fire services, transit, and more, with the remainder going to district services and education.
