Guerber: Under the budget that is being adopted, the tax levy from general funds will not
increase. Because of the increased valuation of the property in Eagle 85% of homeowners will
see their property taxes drop in the next fiscal year. For the average persons home with a taxable
value of $100,000 the City taxes will be $103. Of the other 193 cities within the State of Idaho
who assess property tax levies, the City of Eagle is 182nd on that list. Our property tax levy is 11 ~
from the bottom. 16% of the total general fund revenue comes from property taxes and the rest is
generated from other sources.
