[3:55]
this this body is has

[4:07]
and um
we will now have
[4:11]
is there any need for presentation by

[4:17]
production if you don't mind okay
[4:23]
good morning good morning
um i'm not gonna bore you with all the
[4:26]
major details like i did last night um
but just very quickly
[4:31]
the pie chart for anybody who wasn't
here last night the pie chart up on the
[4:36]
screen
shows
[4:38]
back in last year's 2020 property taxes
what a tyron resident would have paid
[4:44]
for by percentage
the big large one was 61.3 percent went
[4:50]
to the fayette county schools
from the orange little orange section
[4:55]
was the school bond
then the gray section is what went to
[4:59]
the county
uh the yellow is what went to fire so it
[5:04]
went to the county for fire
then the little uh purple
[5:10]
light purple or lavender i guess
section is what we spent for ems
[5:16]
and then the dark purple that little
tiny sliver is what went to e-911 which
[5:20]
is your 9-1-1 calls
and the green 9.2
[5:25]
of your tax dollars actually went to the
town of tyrone here that funds your
[5:30]
police department
excuse me your roads
[5:34]
um your recreation
the staff to fund the town and
[5:38]
everything else that has to do with the
town
[5:42]
so
that's just a good example of exactly
[5:45]
where your tax dollars go
[5:51]
basically as the mayor said we're trying
to propose another
[5:56]
2.889 for the 14th year in a row
um
[6:00]
housing values were assessed higher as a
whole that doesn't mean that everybody's
[6:04]
housing value went up
some went down some went up higher but
[6:09]
as an average
they increased
[6:12]
a little bit which makes a tax increase
of six point
[6:18]
i think it's 6.78
um as a as an average um so that means
[6:24]
that tyrone if everybody pays their
taxes would get approximately 6.78
[6:30]
more money than what we did last year
which is needed
[6:34]
for the fact that
we suffered last year just like everyone
[6:39]
else and also because um
things cost more now it's not just
[6:46]
just not it's not just citizens that
food went up it's also it cost us more
[6:50]
to pave roads it costs us more to do
anything we want to do
[6:54]
um the citizens have let us know they
want uh golf cart paths and as you know
[6:58]
we're working towards that we have to
buy right aways and we have to build the
[7:02]
paths and that also costs a lot of money
and so in order for us to to fund the
[7:06]
town the way we feel like we need to
that's the reason for the increase
[7:11]
um
basically if you own a housing value of
[7:15]
350 000 which is the average home value
in tyrone your tax bill would increase
[7:21]
21.94
for the year
[7:24]
so it's a little less than two dollars a
month
[7:28]
if anybody has any questions i can
answer them now and otherwise we can go
[7:32]
to the public hearing
i i do do
[7:36]
sandy um
the 21 dollars that you're talking about
[7:39]
the increase is that just for the tyrone
that part
[7:43]
that is just the tyrone part i have no
control over anything else right okay
[7:47]
thank you or i should say you have no
control over anything else because you
[7:50]
are the ones that decide what to do
thank you and that's if your home is
[7:53]
valued
that's if your home is valued exactly at
[7:57]
350 000
yes
[8:04]
okay thank you thank you
[8:08]
