PUBLIC
NOTICE
1995 Property Tax Rates In Groom ISD
This notice concerns 1995 property tax rates for GROOM ISD.
It presents information about three tax rates. Last year's tax rate
is the actual rate the school district used to determine property taxes
last year. This year's effective tax rate would impose the same total
taxes as last year if you compare properties taxed in both years.
This year's rollback tax rate is the highest tax rate the school district
can set before it must hold a rollback election. In each case these
rates are found by dividing the total amount of taxes and state funds by
the tax base (the total value of taxable property) with adjustments
as required by state law. The rates are given per $100 of property
value.
