FY 2025 Budget: Hunter Mill Supervisor Hosts 2 Public Meetings

RESTON, VA — Fairfax County Executive Bryan Hill presented his Fiscal Year 2025 Budget Proposal at Monday's board of supervisors meeting, calling for a 1-cent increase to the real estate tax rate. If the board adopts the new 4-cent rate, the average household tax bill will increase by $524 next year.

By increasing the residential real estate tax rate by 1 penny, the county can expect $32.32 million in revenue in FY 2025 from residential real estate taxes.

The board of supervisors will announce an advertised tax rate for FY 2025 on March 5. This will be the highest tax rate that the supervisors will be able to adopt, when they vote on the final budget on May 7.
