Title
A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE AMOUNTS AND RATES AS DETERMINED BY THE BUDGET COMMISSION AND AUTHORIZING THE NECESSARY TAX LEVIES AND CERTIFYING THEM TO THE COUNTY FISCAL OFFICER; AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.
Executive Summary: Each year the City is required to pass a resolution accepting the property tax amounts and rates as determined by the County Budget Commission.
Body
Legislative History
None.
Purpose & Explanation
The City’s property tax rates do not change from one year to the next except for new or expiring levies or for an adjustment to a debt (i.e. bond) levy because of a change in property tax valuation and/or an increase in the available balance in a debt service fund. There are no new or expiring property taxes for tax year 2015, and the adjustments to the bond levies would be very minor.
Attached as Exhibit A is the property tax schedule that includes the rates and estimated amounts.
Timing Considerations
We must file the approved Resolution with the Summit County Fiscal Officer by November 12, 2015.
