Order #637 - Motion Passed:  A motion to levy the Fiscal Year 2021 Compensating Tax Rate of 44.6 cents on Real Estate, 44.8 cents on Personal Property, and 45.2 cents for Motor Vehicles with 0.5 cents added to recover prior year losses due to exonerations passed with a motion by Mr. David Kitchens and a second by Mrs. Terry Watson.

Current Tax Levy is 44.8 cents on Real Estate, 45.9 cents on Personal Property, and 45.2 cents on Motor Vehicles.

Compensating tax rate is calculated to provide the same revenue as the prior year. A hearing is not required to adopt the Compensating Rate.

Local property evaluations have increased, resulting in a slightly lower Compensating Rate of 44.6 cents on Real Estate and 44.8 cents on Personal Property.

A 4% revenue increase would require a tax levy of 46.3 cents which is the maximum increase the Board can impose without a recall, however, a hearing is required.

 The Motor Vehicle Tax is at its limit and is the same as last year.

 .05 cents can be added for exonerations (uncollected taxes for the prior year) and a hearing is not required.
