• Rogers approves $16.8M levy for 2026 (hometownsource.com) — Rogers homeowners will see a city tax increase in 2026 after the City Council approved a $16.8 million levy, up 9.8% from this year. For a median $455,400 home, the city portion of the tax bill will rise about $106, as officials tap reserves to maintain services like public safety, parks, and streets while managing inflation and growth costs.
