SJRWMD FY 2017-2018 Final Budget
<br />F. Adopted Millage Rate
<br />The property tax rate for FY 2017-18 is 0.2724 — 27.24 cents for every $1,000 of
<br />assessed property value. The millage rate is approximately 5.6 percent less than the FY
<br />2016-17 millage rate.
<br />Under the 0.2724 millage rate, the owner of a $200,000 house with a $50,000
<br />homestead exemption will be assessed $40.86 in property taxes, or a reduction of $2.42
<br />over the FY 2016-17 assessment. Figure 6 provides additional examples of the amount
<br />of ad valorem tax due to the District based on different property values.
<br />The FY 2017-18 adopted
<br />millage rate is the same as the
<br />estimated rolled -back rate of
<br />0.2724 and it represents less
<br />than half of the estimated
<br />majority vote maximum
<br />millage rate of 0.6180 in FY
<br />2017-18. It is worth noting
<br />that in order to reduce the
<br />burden of taxpayers, the
<br />District has adopted the rolled -
<br />back millage rate since FY
<br />2012-13. Table 4 below
<br />shows a three-year
<br />comparison of total ad
<br />valorem, millage rates, and
<br />total taxable values.
