Page 60 of 74 FY2021 Annual Budget Truth in Taxation •The No New Revenue rate is the property tax rate the City would need to charge in order to produce the same amount of property tax revenues as last year while using the new valuations of the current year. •Typically, property values appreciate from year to year. In most years, the increased value of a property means a lower tax rate could produce the same amount of revenue. For example, a home valued at $100,000 with a tax rate of 42 cents would produce $420 in property tax revenue. If in the following year, the home is valued at $105,000, the No New Revenue rate would be 40 cents to produce the same $420 worth of revenue. The No New Revenue rate enables the public to evaluate the relationship between taxes for the prior year and for the current year. •Previously known as the Effective Rate. Page 61 of 74 FY2021 Annual Budget Truth in Taxation •The Voter Approval rate is the maximum tax rate the City can set before requiring an election to approve the tax rate. After adjustments for debt calculations, the Voter Approval rate is equal to the effective rate times 3.5%. •Previously known as the Rollback Rate.
