We have put together the FY 23-24 Budget: Resident's Review, a 4-page overview that highlights the proposed budget. We understand that budgets can sometimes be overwhelming with lots of technical data, so we have outlined some key information.
The Resident's Review focuses on 2023 property taxes and the impacts of the re-valuation process. The budget is based on a 29-cent tax rate, which is 11 cents lower than last year's rate of 40 cents. We've included some information to help you calculate your Southern Pines property tax bill so you can plan ahead.
The Resident's Review also includes details on resident fees and rates for solid waste, water and sewer, library, and recreation. Other details outline how the Town's revenues are split out into different service areas.
We hope that this Resident's Review will be a helpful resource for you as we move forward with the budgeting process. If you have any questions or want to provide feedback on the budget, there are many ways to reach Town staff and Council:
We are here to serve you and want to ensure that you are informed and engaged in the decisions that impact our community. Thank you for your continued support and participation in making Southern Pines a great place to live!
