The Dubuque Community School District has set a public hearing date on the district’s proposed tax levy for the upcoming fiscal year.
The public hearing will take place on Monday afternoon, April 7th at 4 o’clock at the Forum on Chaney Road.
The proposed tax levy rate for the upcoming fiscal year which begins July 1st is approximately $13.40 per $1,000 of taxable valuation. The district’s current tax levy rate is approximately $13.00 per $1,000.
School officials say the actual levy rate will be determined once school districts learn the amount of state funding they will receive next year. The final rate may be lower, but not higher, than what is included in the proposed tax levy notice.
