Due to state legislation passed in 2013, Carle Foundation Hospital no longer pays property taxes to the city of Urbana. The loss of Carle's $61 million in assessed valuation significantly impacts the property taxes paid by Urbana's citizens. The exemption given to Carle shifts its tax burden to Urbana residents and businesses, whose property taxes have increased by almost 11 %----taxes going to the city, the school district, and the park district.
