Mill Levy and Property Tax
Since May, the commissioners have worked to develop a budget that limits the increase in the county’s revenue from property taxes, culminating in a decision to limit revenue growth to 5.5%.
Boulder County will hold a business meeting before the state’s January 10, 2024 deadline to certify the Boulder County Government’s mill levy.
Sign up to receive the commissioners’ Advance Agenda for meeting details. Business meetings can be attended online, by phone, or in-person, but there is no opportunity for public comment. Written comments can be sent to commissioners@bouldercounty.gov.
The Boulder County Treasurer’s Office will calculate property tax using the mill levies from all 135 taxing entities and send out property tax notices in late January. Find out more about how tax is calculated.
