City Council Adopts 2018 Budget
2018 Adopted Budget (PDF)
Roseville’s annual round of budget discussions produced a final adopted city budget of $54,239,230 for 2018. The budget passed on a 4-0 vote at the City Council’s final meeting of the year on December 11.
The 2018 property tax levy approved by the council is $20,680,505. It is an increase of $1,167,445 or 5.98 percent compared to the 2017 levy.
Due to the overall growth of the city’s tax base and a shift in the tax burden toward commercial properties, however, the portion of the increase realized by homeowners will be less than previous years. The impact on residents will vary depending on a property’s value and change in value relative to other properties in the city. Based on expected property value increases, the median-valued Roseville home valued at $236,900 can expect to pay approximately $77.79 per month in 2018, an increase of $1.83 or 2.4 percent compared to 2017.
The city’s share of total residential property taxes in 2017 were 27 cents out of every tax dollar paid for Roseville School District homes and 26 cents out of every tax dollar paid for homes located in the Mounds View School District. The city expects those figures to be somewhat lower in 2018. The remaining portion of a property owner’s tax bill goes to the county, school districts and other taxing districts.
City Council Approves Preliminary Budget, Tax Levy - Sept. 25, 2017
The Roseville City Council has approved a preliminary property tax levy increase of 6.4 percent for 2018. The 6.4-percent increase to the levy is now the maximum amount the City Council can raise the 2018 tax levy. State statute requires cities to adopt a preliminary tax levy and budget by September 30 for the upcoming fiscal year. Once the preliminary levy is adopted it can be lowered, but not increased.
The recommended 2018 budget is $54,239,230, an increase of $2,275,495 or 4.4 percent. The budget includes $30,443,715 in property tax-supported programs, with $23,795,515 planned for non-property tax-supported items.
The 2018 property tax levy approved by the council to fund the budget is $20,756,100. It is an increase of $1,243,040 compared to the 2017 levy, but due to a shift in the tax base toward commercial properties, the portion of the increase realized by homeowners will be less than previous years.
The impact on residents will vary depending on a property’s value and change in value relative to other properties in the city. Based on an expected property value increases, the median-valued Roseville home of $236,900 can expect to pay approximately $78.10 per month in 2018, an increase of $2.13.

The primary goal when formulating the budget is to provide residents and businesses with the needed, necessary, and desired services in the most efficient way while limiting the amount of financial burden to taxpayers.
The 2018 budget recommended by Trudgeon totals $54,239,230, an increase of $2,275,495 or 4.4 percent. The budget includes tax-supported expenditures, funded in part or in full by property taxes, of $30,443,715, and non-tax supported outlays of $23,795,515, which primarily originate from fee-based revenue sources.
The 2018 recommended property tax levy required to fund the preliminary budget is $20,175,505 and includes both residential and commercial properties in Roseville. It is an increase of $662,445 or 3.4 percent compared to the 2017 levy.
Despite the increase in the tax-supported portion of the budget, there is good news for Roseville homeowners, who will actually pay less in City taxes in 2018.
Ramsey County has informed the City that Roseville’s overall tax capacity is projected to grow at 8.4 percent. Since the median single-family home value in Roseville only increased 4.3 percent compared to the overall tax capacity growth a significant shift in the tax burden has moved to non-single family properties for the upcoming budget cycle.
The overall tax capacity increase for Roseville will result in the owner of a median valued single-family home valued at $236,900 paying a total of $2.52 less in 2018 for city (non-EDA) taxes compared to 2017.
The City Council, which provided staff with its budgetary goals at the Council’s July 17 meeting, will spend the next several weeks reviewing the recommended budget. State statute requires cities to adopt a preliminary tax levy and budget by September 30 for the upcoming fiscal year. The Council will consider the preliminary budget and tax levy (also known as the not-to-exceed levy) as well as the Economic Development Authority budget at its Sept. 25 meeting.
The final budget hearing of the year is scheduled for Dec. 4, with final adoption of the 2018 budget slated for the Dec. 11 meeting.
