Fiscal Year 2026 Adopted Operating and Community Investment Program Budget

   Tax Rate & Budget Facts

  • Approximately 13% of a Jupiter resident’s tax bill is made up of taxes paid to the town. The rest go to other agencies such as Palm Beach County, the School District, Fire Rescue, and special taxing districts.
  • The Town’s total budget is made up of 10 different types of funds: the General Fund, Fire Fund, Health Insurance Fund, Building Fund, Debt Service Fund, Water Fund, Stormwater Fund, Capital Improvement Fund, Fire Rescue Debt Service Fund, and the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA). The General Fund operates local government and is primarily funded by property taxes.
  • The town also maintains a Community Investment Program (CIP), that is a 5-year capital improvement plan for the Town. It is partially funded by property taxes and is updated and voted on each year along with the operating budget.
  • Financial planning for the town focuses on sustainability for short and long-term economic realities. These include planning for a shift from new development to redevelopment, little to no growth in key markets such as housing and construction, and an investment in local businesses to create a more diversified tax base.
