League City to hold public hearing before first reading, adoption of $333M budget

League City residents will have an opportunity to offer input on the city’s proposed $333 million budget and $0.36355 tax rate per $100 valuation of a home for fiscal year 2026-27 at League City City Council’s Aug. 25 meeting.

Digging deeper

League City City Council voted unanimously at its Aug. 11 meeting to propose the no-new-revenue rate. If approved, it will be the 12th consecutive year the city’s property tax rate has decreased.

In tandem with the consecutive annual lowering of the tax rate, League City’s total taxable value has increased year over year, according to previous reporting by Community Impact. However, the total taxable value has dropped over the past two years.

Also of note

The city is proposing a $333 million budget, with public safety as the single largest operational cost, according to city documents.

The League City Police Department accounts for around $30 million of the general fund’s expenses.

Stay tuned

The council will meet at 6 p.m. Aug. 25 at Council Chambers, located at 200 W. Walker St., League City.

City Council will vote on the second and final reading for the budget and the tax rate at its Sept. 8 meeting, per city documents.
