Jill Schramm and the Minot Daily add their full coverage of the City of Minot 2026 budget in the article linked below. The introduction: Minot homeowners are set to get some relief on their 2026 property tax bills after the City Council approved a $216 million budget that holds the line on increases. The plan lowers the city’s tax rate without using the 3% levy hike allowed under state law — a move council member Mike Blessum called “doing our part” to return money to taxpayers. But not everyone was convinced. Council member Paul Pitner warned the cuts rely too heavily on reserves and risk masking long-term financial challenges ahead.
