It presents information about three tax rates. Last year’s tax rate is the actual rate the taxing unit 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
taxing unit can set before taxpayers can start tax rollback procedures. In each case these rates are found by
dividing the total amount of taxes 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.
