summary
Summary Explanation/Background:
Pursuant to State Statute 200.065, taxing authorities are required to adopt Fiscal Year tentative and final millage rates and citywide budget following the first and the final public hearings. At the public hearings, the roll back rate, percentage of increase over the roll back rate, and the millage rate to be levied must be publicly read.

The proposed General Fund millage rate of 5.1361 represents a 3% increase when compared to the FY 2018 adopted General Fund millage rate of 4.9865.

Please note that 8.52% increase in property taxes when compared to the rolled-back millage rate is calculated as follows:
[(current year proposed aggregate millage rate ? current year aggregate rolled-back rate) - 1.00] x 100 [(5.6361/5.1938) - 1.00 x 100 = 8.52%

Current year proposed aggregate millage rate: Total of all ad valorem taxes proposed to be levied (City and EMS)/current year gross taxable value*1,000
73,001,971/12,952,568,456*1,000=5.6361

Current year aggregate rolled back rate: Adjusted prior year ad valorem proceeds (City and EMS)/ adjusted current year taxable value*1,000
61,151,199/11,773,782,128*1,000=5.1938
