Ad Valorem Tax Millage 28
Example Calculation How much Ad Valorem Tax would a single family home valued at $100, 000 generate in the Hinds County School District, at the school taxes of 67. 05 mills? Facts: Formula: $100, 000 = true value 10% = Class II ratio. 06802 = millage rate of 67. 05 mills “true value” X “ratio” = “assessed value” X “millage rate” = “tax bill” Application of Formula to $100, 000 X 10% = $10, 000 Facts: $10, 000 X. 06705 = $670. 50 Thus, in this example, the ad valorem tax bill is $670. 50. 29
Tax Bill Implications by True Value 49
Notice of Tax Increase • Advertisement of Notice of Tax Increase is required by Mississippi Code Section 27 -39 -207 • Advertisement as run indicates that the district’s proposed request may cause an increase in the ad valorem millage rate. 31
Proposed Ad Valorem Tax Request The District requests a specific dollar amount of support and does not set millage. The information about millage is provided only as clarification of the district’s estimated affect on taxes. The ad valorem tax effort discussed and advertised is the District’s estimate based on available information. Forces outside the District come together to determine what the final millage rate will be. The final millage rate will be higher or lower based on final assessed valuation and homestead exemption. 32
Proposed Ad Valorem Tax Request that the Hinds County Board of Supervisors levy a millage rate that will generate total proposed ad valorem tax revenues of $26, 380, 635. Represents $328, 465 increase over last year due to lack of MAEP full funding and offset by anticipated new property growth. Authority to request additional funds is granted in MS Law 37 -57 -104(3) and is not subject to 4% or 7 % tax increase limitations. Proposal is based on the 2017 Assessed Valuations. 33
Next steps in budget process Modifications or corrections related to the public hearing will be reviewed and incorporated into Budget. Conduct individual budget review meetings with Principals. Board will approve final budget at next board meeting. Resolution will be sent to the Hinds County Board of Supervisors requesting final request amount. 34
