Martin Kidsdton(Missoula Current) The administrative budget for Fiscal Year 2027 presented Wednesday by Missoula Mayor Andrea Davis seeks no new programs and only one new city employee, though it still results in a budget increase of roughly 3.8%. But for a home with an assessed value of $500,000, the city's proposed tax increase would rise around $72 a year, or $6 per month. “While I wish we had no property tax increase at all, I'm committed to keeping these increases modest and predictable.” The mayor's proposed budget is lean compared to budgets from years past. Broken down, the 3.8% budget increase would generate around $2.8 million in additional city revenue.
