flag Delaware County raises property taxes 19% to fix budget deficit, affecting $255K homes by $188 yearly.

flag Delaware County approved a 19% property tax increase, effective next month, as part of a $340 million budget to address a long-standing structural deficit. flag The hike, the second in two years, will add about $188 annually to the bill for a $255,000 home. flag Council members cited years of underfunding and dwindling federal aid under prior leadership as key reasons, saying the new budget marks the first time in over a decade the county is on track for financial balance. flag The 4-1 vote followed public opposition, with residents criticizing the scale and timing, while officials emphasized the need for responsible spending to avoid future increases.
