Council to Weigh Property Tax Rate Increase vs. Flat FY27 Rate

MCCouncil-LIO May 1, 2026
The Montgomery County Council will review FY27 real property tax rate options on May 4, 2026. The County Executive proposes a weighted rate of $1.0885 per $100 of assessed value, including a 6.3-cent increase to the MCPS supplemental rate. The GO Committee recommends keeping the rate flat at $1.0255 — the same as FY26 — which would reduce total resources from the Executive's recommended budget by $164.6 million.
