Municipal Tax

THE CITY OF SANFORD'S tax rate for Fiscal Year 2019-20 is $0.60 per $100 assessed valuation, which is revenue neutral. The City was able to reduce the tax rate by $0.02 from FY 2018-19 due to increased property values following Lee County’s reappraisal process.

Sanford City Council approved an increase in the annual sanitation fee by $45 per residence, resulting from an increase in the cost of recycling services. This change increased the sanitation fee from $225 to $270 per household annually.
