It looks like real estate taxes will be going up in Blair County.
 
The budget to be introduced at the Blair County Board of Commissioners meeting on Tuesday will likely include a 3.5-mill real estate tax increase.
 
The county would be required to seek court approval of the projected increase because it would take the county's general fund tax levy beyond 25 mills.
 
Some tweaking of the budget numbers could occur between Tuesday and the December vote on the budget.
