NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON TAX INCREASE

A tax rate of $0.342638 per $100 valuation has been proposed by the governing body of the City of Haslet. 

    PROPOSED TAX RATE     $0.342638 per $100

    NO-NEW-REVENUE TAX RATE     $0.298208 per $100

    VOTER-APPROVAL TAX RATE     $0.330277 per $100

    DE MINIMIS RATE     $0.355427 per $100

The no-new-revenue tax rate is the tax rate for the 2023 tax year that will raise the same amount of property tax revenue for Haslet from the same properties in both the 2022 tax year and the 2023 tax year.

The voter-approval rate is the highest tax rate that Haslet may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate, unless the de minimis rate for Haslet exceeds the voter-approval rate for Haslet.

The de minimis rate is the rate equal to the sum of the no-new-revenue maintenance and operations rate for Haslet, the rate that will raise $500,000, and the current debt rate for Haslet.

The proposed tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that Haslet is proposing to increase property taxes for the 2023 tax year.

A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED TAX RATE WILL BE HELD ON August 21, 2023 AT 7:00 PM AT 105 Main Street, Haslet TX and Virtually.

The proposed tax rate is greater than the voter-approval tax rate but not greater than the de minimis rate and does not exceed the rate that allows voters to petition for an election under Section 26.075, Tax Code. If the City of Haslet adopts the proposed tax rate, Haslet is not required to hold an election so that voters may accept or reject the proposed tax rate and the qualified voters of the City of Haslet may not petition the City Council of Haslet to require an election to be held to determine whether to reduce the proposed tax rate. However, you may express your support for or opposition to the proposed tax rate by contacting the members of the City Council of Haslet at their offices or by attending the public meeting mentioned above.

YOUR TAXES OWED UNDER ANY OF THE RATES MENTIONED ABOVE CAN BE CALCULATED AS FOLLOWS:

Property tax amount= (tax rate) x (taxable value of your property)/100 

FOR the proposal:     Mayor Pro-Tem Marilyn Broyles     

                                  Council Member Hector Najera    

                                  Council Member Kerry Ricketts     

AGAINST the proposal:     Council Member Doug Horak   

                                           Council Member Tanya Morrow    

PRESENT and not voting:     Mayor Gary Hulsey     

ABSENT:     

none          

The 86th Texas Legislature modified the manner in which the voter-approval tax rate is calculated to limit the rate of growth of property taxes in the state.

The following table compares the taxes imposed on the average residence homestead by the City of Haslet last year to the taxes proposed to be imposed on the average residence homestead by the City of Haslet this year.

For assistance with tax calculations, please contact the tax assessor for Haslet at (817)439-5931 or mlamb@haslet.org, or visit www.haslet.org for more information.
