summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
Pursuant to State Statute 200.065, taxing authorities are required to adopt fiscal year tentative and final millage rates and a citywide budget at the first and final public hearings. At the public budget hearings, the rolled-back rate, the percentage of increase over the rolled-back rate, and the millage rate to be levied must be publicly read.
FY 2026 recommended EMS millage rate is capped at 0.5000.
Percent over the rolled-back rate calculation for the EMS District:
[(current year millage rate ÷ current year rolled-back rate) - 1.00] x 100
[(0.5000/0.4630) - 1.00] x 100 = 7.99%
The City’s FY 2026 Recommended Budget Books are published on the City’s Budget Office webpage: https://www.pompanobeachfl.gov/government/budget.
Per State Statute, the FY 2026 Adopted Budget will be published on the City’s Budget Office webpage https://www.pompanobeachfl.gov/government/budget within 30 days of its final adoption.
