Gainesville City Council to vote on tax rate increase at June 19 meeting
Gainesville Public Safety Complex 0001
City officials are set to present proposed changes to short-term rentals during the Gainesville Planning and Appeals Board meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 8.
After holding a public hearing at its June 5 meeting, the Gainesville City Council will vote on the city’s proposed budget at its June 19 meeting. Gainesville officials have proposed a 0.5-mill increase in the property tax rate to fund transportation projects and raises for public safety employees. The increase would result in a $100 tax increase for someone with a $200,000 home. There is not a water or sewer rate increase in the proposed budget.
