Show Notes
Fairfax County supervisors propose a $5.9 billion budget for FY2027, maintaining the real estate tax rate at $1.1225 per $100 of assessed value. However, homeowners may face over $300 in additional taxes due to expected home value increases. Service fees, such as trash collection and emergency medical transport, will also rise. The budget allocates extra funds for public schools and infrastructure projects, along with a 2% cost of living adjustment for county workers. Despite these increases, the county plans to trim 49 merit positions. Residents can voice their opinions at a public hearing on March 24th or May 5th, when supervisors aim to finalize the budget.
