Plain-language impact

What could this mean for your property?

This renews the current tax and adds 0.3999999999999999 mills. The added portion is the estimated increase; the full 1.4-mill rate is the renewed levy total. If it fails, the existing tax expires.

For the district: Renews existing 1 mill and adds 0.4 mills (total 1.4 mills). Raises about $89,035/year. If it fails, the existing 1-mill tax expires entirely.

At $100,000 appraised value: about $14 a year added; about $49 total for this levy before reductions.

The $100,000 starting value is only an example. This rough estimate multiplies the full voted rate by 35% of appraised value. It does not account for parcel-specific effective rates, credits, rollbacks, or other reductions, and is not a tax bill. Check the County Auditor’s levy estimator for your parcel; the county says its estimate also excludes rollbacks and reductions.

Example uses a $100,000 appraised value.
