A YES vote means
The city keeps its 2-mill parks property tax for five more years and adds 0.95 mill. Property owners pay about $33 more a year per $100,000 of home value.
A NO vote means
The current 2-mill parks property tax ends after 2026, and the 0.95-mill increase does not happen. City parks and recreation lose the money that tax brings in.
