Bryan City Council will consider maintaining the city’s property tax rate for fiscal year 2026-27 and approving budgets for several city agencies during its Aug. 11 meeting.
What you need to know
The city's property tax rate currently sits at $0.624000 per $100 valuation. This rate has been in place since 2022. If approved, the tax rate would be voted on during the September council meeting for final adoption.
What else?
Council members are also set to approve budgets for the Brazos Valley Solid Waste Management Agency for trash collection and landfill services.
According to agenda material, the proposed operating expenses for the Brazos Valley Solid Waste Management Agency at $10.8 million would be an increase from last year. However, the agency is also projected to make gains in capital, cash flow and revenue.
Next, the city may approve its budget for the Brazos County Health District. This would be the first time the city’s contribution to the Health District’s budget has increased since 2021, according to agenda documents. It is a reported 21% jump from $478,029.
The Department of Executive Services recommended the increase because of a “2.5% market adjustment for all positions.”
