On November 10, 2025, Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway and Council leadership introduced an amendment to the 2026 city budget. The amendment aims to limit property tax increases. The proposal is co-sponsored by Council President Regina Vidaver, Vice President MGR Govindarajan, and several alders. It would result in an average property tax increase of $2.50 per month, or $30 per year, for homeowners. This is the lowest increase in at least forty years.
The amendment
proposes using $218,037 from the city’s unassigned fund balance to pay
for specific expenses. This approach avoids adding these costs to the
property tax levy...
RSK: Great for the city but the state taxes, especially the never ending increase voted in for public schools, is still the real kicker.
