Manhattan’s 2027 Tax Budget Breakdown | Topeka News

Manhattan’s 2027 budget could break new ground—potentially exceeding its Revenue Neutral Rate, meaning more property tax revenue than last year. City commissioners will vote on July 7th to signal intent, with final decisions due September 15th. Residents are urged to attend public hearings or voice opinions, as the city balances growing services, debt, and rising property values. A proposed budget keeps the tax rate flat while funding needs and planning for the future. Some commissioners want lower rates, and more details are needed. Also on the table: upcoming sales tax renewals. Remember, property taxes fund just over 11% of city services—24% of the city’s general fund comes from property taxes, with the rest from sales taxes and fees.
