Both Yabapai and Yabapai County Free Library Districts have issued official notices of tax increases and hearing schedules.
Yabapai County
In accordance with Arizona Section 42-17107, Yabapai County, whose law has been revised, has notified property taxpayers of Yabapai County’s intention to raise major property taxes at last year’s level. Yabapai County is proposing an increase in primary property taxes by $2,133,478 or 3.41%.
For example, the proposed tax hike will bring Yavapai County’s major property tax to $164.43 for a $100,000 home. Without the proposed tax hike, the total tax paid on the $100,000 home would be $159.01.
The proposed increase excludes the major property tax increases received from new construction. This increase excludes changes that may arise from property tax levies due to voter-approved guaranteed debt or budget and tax overrides.
