The Manassas City Council on Monday approved its $239 million budget which increases the average property tax bill 3.72%, producing an average tax bill of $4,075 for homeowners.
The tax hike will generate an additional $4.7 $1.7 million in new funds, of which $1.5 million will be used to fulfill the third of a three-year agreement between the city council and school board to approve additional funding for schools. The general fund increases by $4.7 million in funds.
