Plain-language impact

What could this mean for your property?

This renews the current tax at a lower rate, from 1.5 to 1 mills. The reduction is the estimated savings. If it fails, the existing tax expires.

For the district: Renews at a REDUCED rate: drops 0.5 mills from current 1.5 mills to 1.0 mill. This is a tax cut. Raises about $16,051/year. If it fails, the existing 1.5-mill tax expires entirely.

At $100,000 appraised value: about $17.5 a year in savings; about $35 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.
