For your $150,000 home

$210.00 a year

$17.50 a month

$150,000 ÷ $100,000 × $140.00 = $210.00

Lit: 4 of every 1,000 taxable dollars.

  • A renewal keeps a tax that is already on the bill for another term. If it passes, the bill does not go up because of it; if it fails, that tax ends when its current term runs out.
  • Check: 4 mills x $35 = $140 for each $100,000, which matches the ballot.

These are costs before any credit or exemption (owner-occupancy credit, homestead exemption and others). Credits can only lower them. The ballot's own figures are used as printed; this reader does not check them against county records. How it works.
