00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:11,700
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. What a beautiful Tuesday it is at 9.30, July 31st. We appreciate you all being here today. Really good. Thank you for coming.

2
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:17,040
We're going to move into meeting here as soon as the secretary calls, roll.

3
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:18,800
Mayor Mielder. Mayor.

4
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:19,840
Chair.

5
00:00:20,540 --> 00:00:21,300
Councilman Gibson.

6
00:00:22,180 --> 00:00:22,860
Councilman Porter.

7
00:00:23,820 --> 00:00:24,780
Councilman Snyder.

8
00:00:25,220 --> 00:00:25,960
Councilor Gentry.

9
00:00:26,540 --> 00:00:27,120
You have a corner.

10
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,500
Do I have a motion to adjourn?

11
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:31,280
Okay.

12
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,420
We're going to move in item number one.

13
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:37,700
Submission of the 2012 effective and rollback tax rate.

14
00:00:37,820 --> 00:00:39,120
Mr. Williams, I think.

15
00:00:39,940 --> 00:00:40,940
This is your show today.

16
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:42,120
Thank you, Mayor.

17
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:43,720
You have all in the finance department.

18
00:00:43,780 --> 00:00:46,580
The good news is we're going to shoot for a record for the shortest

19
00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:55,740
Council meeting but all right the reason why we're here today is because we have to comply with truth and taxation laws and there are certain timelines and limitations that we have to meet

20
00:00:55,740 --> 00:00:59,940
So that's why we're calling you here on this fine morning

21
00:01:00,580 --> 00:01:09,320
For this special meeting, but the first one is the submission of the effective in rollback tax rates and I'll direct you to the memo you can see in there that

22
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:15,200
are a assessor collector which is J.R. Moore is required to calculate an effective tax rate and a

23
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:23,540
rollback tax rate. And the effective tax rate, even though it can be a little bit more complicated than the way I'm about to state it,

24
00:01:23,700 --> 00:01:33,800
it's generally equal to the prior year taxes divided by the current taxable value of properties that were on both tax rules or for both years.

25
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,340
So you're comparing last year's properties value,

26
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:41,360
taking a set of properties from last year,

27
00:01:42,340 --> 00:01:45,480
and those values and comparing it to those same properties

28
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,460
this year and those values.

29
00:01:47,820 --> 00:01:50,680
And whatever that rate calculates out to be

30
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:51,980
between the difference in those two

31
00:01:51,980 --> 00:01:54,480
is what you call your effective tax rate.

32
00:01:54,740 --> 00:01:56,500
You can see there in the calculation

33
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:03,080
that it's 41.7 cents or 0.417 for $100

34
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:10,940
of such valuation and showing that relationship between last year, that basically means that

35
00:02:10,940 --> 00:02:15,480
if it was on last year's tax roll, it's pretty much the same valuation as it was last

36
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:21,400
year. There's not a lot of movement. However, there is a requirement that if it's not,

37
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,820
if we're going to propose a tax rate, which we're going to be proposing a tax rate of 42 cents,

38
00:02:26,460 --> 00:02:31,900
and if the effective tax rate is lower, all that means that triggers our responsibility

39
00:02:31,900 --> 00:02:38,060
to publish ads in the newspaper, there will be two of those, and to hold a public hearing.

40
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,720
So I'll tell you really quickly about the rollback tax and rate calculation.

41
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:44,000
That's got two components.

42
00:02:44,540 --> 00:02:48,440
It's got operations and maintenance and the interest in sinking component or dead component.

43
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:55,220
It allows you the same amount of operating and maintenance money as last year,

44
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:56,980
plus an 8% increase.

45
00:02:56,980 --> 00:03:03,700
Well, you can see the calculation on the next page that the rollback tax rate is 45,

46
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:10,180
68 per hundred assessed valuation, or no, we're both that with our proposed tax rates.

47
00:03:10,780 --> 00:03:15,880
So, we won't be falling into under any of the requirements associated with the rollback

48
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:16,520
tax rate.

49
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:23,960
And essentially what I'm here to do today is recommend that the Council accept submission of

50
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:34,320
notice of effective tax rate at $41.470 per $100.6 valuation and a rollback tax rate of

51
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:42,560
$0.456.8 per $100.6 valuation for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012, and

52
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,560
ending September 30, 2013, as provided by Montgomery County Tax Sister Collective JRM.

53
00:03:51,060 --> 00:03:55,560
Is there a motion for approval that is stated by Mr. Weaves?

54
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:57,860
We have a motion. Is there a second?

55
00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:02,200
Any questions or comments on this?

56
00:04:02,580 --> 00:04:05,160
All in favor say aye. All opposed.

57
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:06,640
Motion carries. Thank you, sir.
