A CHANGE IN PERSPECTIVE: ONE WOMAN’S JOURNEY INTO EASTERN ORTHODOXY

Spokane County property taxes to rise significantly in 2018
Spokane County property tax bills for 2018 will be on average 10 percent higher because of the measure, known as the second state school levy, approved by the state Legislature and Gov. Jay Inslee last year. The levy is meant to address the Washington Supreme Court’s McCleary decision, which ordered the state to fully fund public schools. The levy raises the state property tax levy rate to $2.70 per $1,000 of assessed home value – an 81 cent increase over last year’s rate of $1.89.
