Valuation limits
North Dakota HB 1176, signed May 17, 2025, limits each taxing district's property-tax levy increase to 3% over the preceding levy without voter approval, subject to statutory adjustments and exceptions, effective for 2026 levies. This is a levy limitation, not a general parcel valuation cap; no separate general parcel valuation cap was identified in official North Dakota sources reviewed.
