committee composed of experts from the development community to address response times through <br />efficiencies and technological improvements, as well as any recommended changes in fee structures. <br />Proposed residential assessment rates are increasing by $6.49 (6.33%) to $109.10 per Equivalent <br />Residential Unit. Commercial rates are increasing by $2.12 (5.96%) to $37.67 per Waste Generation Unit <br />(W.G.U). The proposed readiness -to -use fee is $21.59 per W.G.U, an increase of $1.10 from last fiscal <br />year. The rate increase is driven by a $770,000 increase in the cost to construct, update, and maintain <br />closed landfill cells. <br />For illustrative purposes, the effect of the preceding proposed rates on a home with an assessed value of <br />$200,000 and a homestead exemption of $50,000 is shown in the following table. <br />Table 3 <br />Typical House Comparison — Proposed vs. Current <br />Proposed Millage Compared to Current <br />2016/2017 <br />Adopted <br />Millage <br />g <br />2017/2018 <br />Proposed. <br />Millage <br />9 <br />Increaseok <br />(Decrease) <br />Increase <br />(Decrease) <br />Taxable Value <br />$150,000 <br />$150,000 <br />General Fund <br />$504.03 <br />$513.89 <br />$9.86 <br />1.96% <br />Land Acquisition 2004 <br />$47.15 <br />$44.33 <br />($2.82) <br />(5.98%) <br />Subtotal — Indian River Shores <br />$551.18 <br />$558.22 <br />$7.04 <br />1.28% <br />Emergency Services District <br />$345.15 <br />$354.83 <br />$9.68 <br />2.80% <br />Subtotal -All Other Incorporated Areas <br />$896.33 <br />$913.05 <br />$16.72 <br />1.87% <br />M.S.T.U.
