The Board approved that property taxes be increased by the adoption of a tax rate of $1.36 per the following:  

ORDINANCE TO SET TAX RATE

 

DATE: 7/31/2007

 

On this date, we, the Board of Trustees of the Schulenburg School District, hereby levy or set the tax rate on $100 valuation for the District for the tax year 2007 (07-08 school year) at a total tax rate of $1.36:

 

$1.1700           for the purpose of maintenance and operation, and

 

$  .1900           for the purpose of payment of principal and interest on debts.

 

The Tax Rate will raise taxes for maintenance and operations on a $100,000 home by approximately $110.50 (compared to the Rollback Tax Rate of $1.04 for M/O).

{ex:  $100,000- $15,000 (HS EXP) $85,000 * $1.36 = $1,156.00   

         $100,000-$15,000 (HS EXP) $85,000 * $1.23 = $1,045.50}

 

Such taxes are to be assessed and collected by the tax officials designated by the District.
