Since October numbers weren’t available when I did this story: https://blnnews.com/2025/11/24/before-bloomington-raises-property-taxes-ask-them-to-explain-this/

Let’s look at them!

In that story, for 5 months, Bloomington had already collected $2,434,698 more than in 2024.

Half way through the fiscal year, they are already over $3 million more.

.

Your property taxes and grocery tax HAD to be raised though. Sure.
