Notice of Public Hearing on Tax Increase

The City of Wylie will hold a public hearing on a proposal to increase total tax revenues from properties on the tax roll in the preceding year by 10.88 percent. Your individual taxes may increase at a greater or lesser rate, or even decrease, depending on the change in the taxable value of your property in relation to the change in taxable value of all other property and the tax rate that is adopted. 

The public hearing will be held on August 27, 2002 at 6:00 PM at the Wylie City Council Chambers, 2000 Highway 78 North, Wylie, Texas.

FOR the proposal: Mayor John Mondy 
Eric Hogue
 J.C. Worley
Joel Scott
AGAINST the proposal: None
PRESENT and not voting: None
ABSENT Reta Allen
Chris Trout
Merrill Young

The following table compares taxes on an average home in this taxing unit last year to taxes proposed on the average home this year. Again, your individual taxes may be higher or lower, depending on the taxable value of your property.

Last Year  This Year
Average residence homestead value $104,546  $109,206
General exemptions available
(amount available on the average homestead, not including senior
citizen's or disabled person's exemptions)
$0   $0
Average taxable value  $104,546 $109,206
Tax rate (per $100) 0.720000 0.715000
Tax  $752.73 $780.82
Under this proposal, taxes on the average homestead would increase by $28.09 or 3.73 percent compared with last year's taxes.
Comparing tax rates without adjusting for changes in property value,
the tax rate would decrease by $0.005 per $100 of taxable value or
0.69 percent compared to last year's tax rate. These tax rate figures
are not adjusted for changes in the taxable value of property.
