The proposed tax rate for 2024 is $0.32661 per $100 of property value, a slight decrease from last year’s rate of $0.32782 per $100. This represents a 0.36% decrease in the overall rate.

  • Average appraised residence value increased from $210,732 last year to $228,228 this year.
  • For an average homestead, the tax bill would increase from $552.65 to $596.33, reflecting a 7.9% increase in actual taxes paid.

If the proposed rate increases taxes on the average homestead by more than 3.5%, an election may be required unless the adopted rate stays below the voter-approval rate of $0.32661.
