Are there other potential costs that will increase my property taxes?
  • No.  At least not in a significant way.
    • There is no expectation that the City will need additional employees or the new homes will require additional costs beyond normal maintenance.  City streets are maintained annually and any new streets may change the annual maintenance of any given street from a 13.5-year cycle to a 14-year cycle.  In Louisburg, like all municipalities, sidewalks are typically the obligation of adjacent property owner to maintain and replace, but the City is making effort to maintain and add sidewalks for safety.
