• McCordsville's proposed $16M budget for 2027 is increase, but tax rate is expected to hold (greenfieldreporter.com) — McCordsville officials are advancing a proposed $16.6 million town budget for 2027 that keeps the property tax rate steady for a second year, thanks in part to an 11% jump in assessed value. The plan shifts funding among key funds, navigates uncertainty over state gas tax reimbursements, and must be finalized and submitted to Indiana's Department of Local Government Finance by late October.
