Measure - 34-312 - City of Forest Grove - Five-year replacement levy for fire, police, parks, and library services
QUESTION:
Shall City increase operating levy for fire, police, parks, and library to $1.95 per $1,000 for five years beginning 2023-24?

The increase in the levy rate to $1.95 would cost a typical homeowner with an average assessed value (not market value) of $233,550 an additional $82 per year in property taxes. This is an estimate only.



Estimated revenues for the levy are $4,089,976 in 2023-24.
