Parks and Recreation Ballot Question
In the upcoming 2026 Primary Election, Henderson residents will decide whether to renew the existing 12-cent property tax that funds our parks, recreation programs and community services.
This is not a new tax. Residents already pay it today. The average homeowner spends $120/year currently and this would stay the same.
Why It Matters
No matter what, 12 cents will still be collected.
A VOTE YES: Your 12 cents stays in Henderson to fund local parks and recreation. A VOTE NO: Your money leaves Henderson impacting the future of our Parks and Recreation services and amenities.
A YES Vote Means
Your “yes” vote renews funding that covers about 40% of the Parks and Recreation Department’s budget, supporting:
Clean, well-maintained parks, trails and sports fields Pools, community centers and recreation programs Youth and preschool programs, childcare and senior services Safe, active neighborhoods and strong property values
A NO Vote Means
Voting “no” does not lower your taxes — it just redirects your dollars out of Henderson. That potentially means:
Reduction Park/Trail Maintenance Cutbacks on Recreation Programs and Events Delayed Equipment Repair/Replacement Decreased Property Values Increased Safety Risks Decline in Economic and Community Vitality Decline in City Services
