STORY SUMMARY

ISLAND OF HAWAIʻI - The Hawaiʻi County Council wants to hear from the public on proposed tax rate reductions for Homeowner and Affordable Rental Classes.

(BIVN) – A public hearing will take place this at 5 p.m. this evening (Wednesday, May 29) on proposed changes to Hawai‘i County’s real property tax rates. 

The Hawaiʻi County Council wants to hear from the community on Council Resolution 525-24, which will reduce the property tax rates for Homeowner and Affordable Rental Classes from $6.15 to $5.75.

If passed, this would decrease property taxes by $40 for every $100,000 of net taxable value.



If the resolution passes, this is what the schedule of tax rates will look like, per $1,000 of assessed valuation, for the various real property classes for fiscal year July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025:
