The Manhattan City Commission will consider several items when it meets Tuesday for its first legislative meeting in nearly a month.

In a state-required step, city officials will consider a resolution to exceed the calculated revenue-neutral rate of 51.156 mills for the 2026 budget. That figure is the minimum required to generate the same amount of property tax revenue the city received in 2025, based on assessed valuations.

The resolution sets a maximum mill levy rate of 56.109, 3 mills higher than the 2025 mill levy. As previously reported by The Mercury and KMAN, city staff proposed levying $2.5 million in additional property taxes in 2026, based on a total mill levy of 54.241.

Chamber officials say they’ve been engaged off and on with Amazon for over five years, to secure a location for the company.
