The adopted 2026 budget and property tax levies will guide City spending and taxation next year, although the minutes do not provide the levy amount or tax-rate change. Residents will also have new 2026 electric, water, sewer, and stormwater utility rates; the City Administrator said Chaska’s rates would be in the middle of the comparison cities’ 2025 rates. The City Square West agreement establishes a framework for continued planning with the developer, with a formal concept plan and developer agreement still to be secured.
