Enter your home value and a few details — the page builds your bill, your override share, and every state and federal benefit you may qualify for.
State law (Prop 2½) raises the levy 2.5% per year automatically — the lighter slice in every bar. Q1, Q2, and Q3 are nested override tiers ($9M / $12M / $15M annual) that stack on top. The highest passing question sets the amount. None shows what your bill does if no override passes.
If Q4 passes, trash funding gets added to your tax bill (scaled to assessed value). If Q4 fails, you pay a flat curbside fee instead. For your home, here's the comparison at FY29 full phase-in.
Trash budget is raised as a regular property-tax levy. Higher-value homes pay proportionally more.
Board of Health implements a per-household fee. Every household pays the same amount regardless of home value.
Greyed-out cards show what you don't qualify for, and why.
Your share of each department, scaled from the FY26 general fund budget.
