County Approves Tax Hike
After making more cuts at the last minute, El Paso County Commissioner’s Court on Monday afternoon adopted a County tax increase of 5.82 percent by a vote of 3-2.
El Paso County Judge Anthony Cobos and County Commissioner Dan Haggerty voted against it.
The increase will amount to a $23 increase in taxes annually for the owner of an average $122,000 home, or less than $2a month.
