In compliance with section 42-17107, Arizona Revised Statutes, Santa Cruz County is notifying its property taxpayers of Santa Cruz County’s intention to raise its primary property taxes over last year’s level. Santa Cruz County is proposing an increase in primary property taxes of $891,743 or 5.36%.
