How much each household contributes to the library’s tax levy is based on assessed property value. The following table illustrates what the increase would mean for a range of property values, as well as the new annual totals for these properties.
| Town of Skaneateles* Real Property Value |

| Current 2025-26 library levy | $10.51 | $42.04 | $84.08 | $105.10 |
| Increase per household | $13.80 | $55.20 | $110.42 | $138.01 |
| Total 2026-27 library levy with increase | $24.31 | $97.24 | $194.50 | $243.11 |
