  • 2026-2027 Budget - City of Knoxville

    Knoxville, TN
    Budget

    Mayor Indya Kincannon proposed a balanced, $499 million net budget for fiscal years 2026-2027 with no new taxes, maintaining the city's property tax rate at $2.1556 per $100 of assessed value—the lowest since 1974. The budget prioritizes public safety ($102.1 million for police and firefighter salaries and benefits), affordable housing ($8 million investment including support for the Transforming Western partnership), and parks and quality-of-life services, while withdrawing $6 million from reserves to address inflationary pressures that are outpacing revenue growth. Despite budgetary challenges from 2.2 percent sales tax growth forecasts against 3 percent anticipated inflation, Knoxville maintains strong financial reserves of $114.6 million in its General Fund Balance and holds all-time high bond ratings with the lowest debt per capita among Tennessee's six largest cities.
