There is no change in the mill rate in Paradise.

The town tabled its $44.6 million municipal budget for 2025 Tuesday evening.

Mayor Dan Bobbett says the town is not immune to rising costs and increased financial pressure and maintaining the mil rate means they have the revenue to sustain operations and services.

That doesn’t mean that taxes won’t increase per household. Residential property assessments increased this year and residents of Paradise will notice a small increase to their 2025 tax bill – an estimated $102 per household on average.

The town is spending money this year on new snow clearing equipment, the development of the Trenton Drive Open Space Area, and the development of new trails in the Silverbirch Crescent and Morgan Avenue areas.

Funding has been set aside for expansion of the Route 30 Metrobus schedule to an all-day service. The town is also looking at a feasibility study on a swimming pool.
