The Worthington City Council, in a brief Tuesday meeting over the noon hour, approved resolutions concerning the proposed City of Worthington tax levies collectible in 2025.
The initial resolution approved the proposed City of Worthington tax levy of $8,562,706. This amount breaks down into an operating levy of $7,470,417 and special tax levies of $1,092,289. The proposed levy represents a 18.0% increase over 2024 and is up slightly from the 16.85% proposed increase presented to council members during their meeting the previous evening.
The proposed city levy is an amount not to exceed and may be lowered, but not raised for the final levy certification in December.
A separate resolution approving the Housing and Redevelopment Authority's 2025 proposed levy of $210,800, an increase of $24,800 over 2024, was also passed.
The Worthington City Council will host a meeting at 6 p.m. Dec. 9 in the City Hall Council Chambers to discuss the final 2025 budget and levy. A truth-in-taxation hearing will be hosted at this time, where public input will be taken prior to adoption.
