The League is asking city officials to download and use the 2026 Property Tax Reform Model to assess how the proposals could affect their communities. Your feedback is critical. The more real-world local data we can provide to legislators, the stronger our ability to advocate for practical, workable policy solutions.
Please run this easy-to-use model, developed by the League’s Partner, Piper Sandler & Co., as soon as possible. We encourage you to take time to review and understand your city’s results, considering both immediate impacts and longer-term implications for your budget, services and community.
The model is intended to inform your conversations with lawmakers. As you engage, use your results to help explain what these proposals mean for your city in practice, including how they may affect your ability to plan, budget and deliver services over time. It is important to look beyond any single-year impacts.
Rather than simply sharing model outputs, we encourage you to use this tool to develop a clear understanding of how each proposal affects your community and to communicate those impacts in your own words.
After reviewing your results, please share your key takeaways and insights with your House and Senate lawmakers, as well as with the League at legislativestaff@iowaleague.org. Please reach out with any questions.
