Worcester County officials have finalized their spending plan for fiscal year 2027, keeping property taxes at the current rate while providing additional resources for local schools.
The approved budget maintains the property tax rate at 81.5 cents per $100 of assessed value, meaning homeowners will not see an increase in their tax bills. At the same time, county leaders allocated 8 percent more funding for education compared to the previous year.
The budget was announced on the county’s website on Wednesday afternoon, marking the completion of the annual budget process for the Maryland county.
