Sunray adopts 2026 tax rate projected to raise more M&O revenue

The City of Sunray has adopted a 2026 property-tax rate projected to raise more maintenance-and-operations, or M&O, tax revenue than the previous year, according to a tax notice posted on the city’s official website. The action applies at the city level to Sunray taxpayers.

M&O revenue supports ongoing municipal operations. The notice indicates that Sunray expects more revenue for that purpose, but it does not state the adopted tax rate or the total levy. It also does not provide a percentage increase or a prior-year comparison amount. Without those figures, the effect on an individual property-tax bill cannot be calculated from the notice alone.

The city has posted a July 9, 2026, City Council agenda, which is the next identified council record connected to the 2026 tax action. Sunray’s meeting and notice records also identify minutes from a June 30 special meeting and a July 2026 council record. The tax notice establishes the expected change in M&O revenue, but it does not establish that the tax rate itself is higher than the prior year. Property owners’ individual bills can also vary based on property values and other factors not listed in the notice.
