To estimate how you will be impacted by this millage you can use the following formula;

(Millage Rate X Your Taxable Property Value) divided by 1,000 = cost per year

Example:
Millage Rate of 1.25 for every $1000 of Taxable Value (TV) of your Parcel add $1.25
Millage Rate of 1.65 for every $1000 of Taxable Value (TV) of your Parcel add $1.65
Millage Rate of 1.25 (TV) $10,000. equals $12.50 Per Year
Millage Rate of 1.65 (TV) $10,000. equals $16.50 Per Year

We are very interested in getting your thoughts. If you would please take a minute and answer the questions on the survey on below it would help us greatly.
