路易斯安那州新奥尔良市议会通过房产税上调 每年增收2320万美元
路易斯安那州奥尔良堂区新奥尔良市消息：新奥尔良市议会11月5日一致表决通过，将与普通基金挂钩的部分房产税率上调至选民已批准的上限，预计每年增收2320万美元，以填补2027财年1亿美元预算缺口。
市首席行政官乔·贾鲁索表示，此举可将缺口缩小至4000万美元，市议会将再决定削减哪些开支。市长海伦娜·莫雷诺领导的市政府团队支持这一方案。
按路易斯安那州法律，房产重估后税率自动下调，此次“税率回调”不需选民重新投票。此次上调仅涉及市政府普通基金部分，学区、水务局、市政债务与执法区税率不受影响。
市议会将于11月19日就最终预算方案投票。

New Orleans City Council Approves Property Tax Increase Worth $23.2 Million a Year
NEW ORLEANS, La. — The New Orleans City Council voted unanimously on November 5 to raise the portion of the property tax rate tied to the general fund to the maximum voters have already approved, a move expected to raise $23.2 million a year toward closing a $100 million budget gap in fiscal 2027.
Chief Administrative Officer Joe Giarrusso said the step would shrink the gap to $40 million, and the council would then decide which spending to cut. The city administration team led by Mayor Helena Moreno supports the measure.
Under Louisiana law, tax rates automatically roll back after a property reassessment, and this "roll forward" does not require a new vote of the public. The increase covers only the city government's general fund portion; rates for the school district, the water board, municipal debt and law enforcement districts are unaffected.
The council is set to vote on the final budget plan on November 19.
