Washington Property Tax
Property tax levy limitations restrict or limit increases to property tax rates.
Washington State’s Constitution limits the regular (non-voted) combined property tax rate that applies to an individual’s property to one percent of market value ($10 per $1,000). Voter approved special levies, such as special levies for schools, are in addition to this amount.
The Levy Limit applies to a taxing district’s levy amount, and not to increases in the assessed value of individual properties. The limit is based on the population of the district as well as the district’s need to increase revenue. The law restricts taxing districts from levying, in any year, more than a one-percent increase in its regular, non-voted levy over the highest amount that could have been levied since 1985. Source
