Delaware County Council has approved a 23% property tax increase. It would amount, on average, to an extra $15 a month, or roughly $185 annually, for most homeowners starting next year.

Delaware County Council adopted its 2025 budget Wednesday evening — which establishes a 23% property tax hike . Citing a need for a steady injection of revenue amid rising costs, the all-Democratic governing body voted 4-1 in favor of Ordinance 2024-10, solidifying the new tax rate.
