Recommendation(s):Hold public hearing and receive citizen input on the tax rate.
Summary:The Texas Property Tax Code requires that if an entity wishes to increase tax revenues over
the effective tax rate then that entity must call and hold two public hearings on the proposed tax rate.
Following each public hearing the City Council must announce the meeting date, time and place to adopt
the tax rate.
The tax rate that the City Council announced it would hold the public hearings on is $0.505841 per $100
assessed valuation.
The notice of this public hearing was placed in the Eagle, as well as on the City's internet site, and the
City's television channel.
This is the first public hearing on the tax rate. A second public hearing will be held on Thursday
