What happened
Parkville voters will decide on three separate property tax propositions on November 3. If approved, the combined increase could raise the city’s property tax levy by nearly 47%. The propositions are intended to fund public safety services, transportation and infrastructure needs, and repairs to city facilities.

Why it matters
The measures are intended to fund essential city services, including police salaries and road repaving, which the Mayor states are necessary to maintain service levels. The combined increase would cost the owner of a $400,000 home an estimated $25 more per month.
