GUIDELINES FOR ADOPTING THE 2014 TAX RATE

Introduction

The Humble ISD Board of Trustees will consider the adoption of a 2014 tax rate at its meeting on October 14, 2014. If the rate adopted by the Board exceeds the rollback rate, an election will be required. After the rollback election, the tax statements will be sent out. Taxes for the 2014 tax year are due and payable when tax statements are issued and will be considered delinquent if not received at the Humble ISD Tax Office before February 1, 2015.

General Guidelines

1. The governing body must publish the “NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING TO DISCUSS BUDGET AND PROPOSED TAX RATE” before adopting an actual tax rate. This notice is to be published in a local newspaper 10 to 30 days before the date the budget is adopted. A quarter-page ad includes a comparison of property tax rates, comparison of property taxes on an average residence, and unencumbered fund balances.

On May 14, 2014, these rates were published in the local Observer newspaper in accordance with state laws governing the publications.

2. The governing body must approve an annual budget before setting the tax rate. The Humble ISD budget was approved by the Board of Trustees at its meeting on May 27, 2014.

3. The governing body is required to adopt its tax rate by September 30 or by

the 60th day after the taxing unit receives the certified appraisal roll, whichever date is later. The Harris County Appraisal District delivered the 2014 certified tax roll to the Humble ISD Tax Office on August 29, 2014.

4. The governing body must adopt the tax rate in a public meeting. If the taxing unit does not adopt a tax rate which exceeds the rollback tax rate, no special meetings or additional newspaper ads are required before adoption of the tax rate. State law requires that the:

 Adoption of the tax rate must be a separate item on the agenda.

 Adoption of tax rate must be done by official action, such as an ordinance, specifying:
