McLean County Board approves $150 million budget, lowers tax rate

The McLean County Board on Thursday approved a $150 million budget, increasing spending by $5.9 million but lowering the property tax rate for the third time in three years. The budget will lower the county’s property tax rate to its lowest level in 20 years, largely due to a 6.72% increase in the county’s equalized assessed valuation. The tax rate will drop from $0.83 to $0.81 per $100 assessed valuation, amounting to a decrease of $15.86 for the owner of a $255,000 home. However, because of the increases in valuation, some homeowners may not see a decrease in their actual county tax bill.
