VIII.G. Set Public Hearing Dates for Proposed Property Taxes Payable 2027. (Action)
Speaker(s):
ALL Board Members
Description:
"The Department of Revenue has established a ‘sequence of events’ and ‘assignment of reporting responsibilities’ for the county, school districts, and cities to follow in establishing public budget hearings." All initial and continuation hearing dates selected must be held after November 23, 2026 and no later than December 28, 2026. The continuation hearing date selected must be at least five (5) business days, but no more than 14 business days after the initial hearing. Hearings may not be held on a Sunday or holiday. If held on a day between Monday and Friday, the hearing must be held after 6:00 p.m. at any reasonable time of day. The public hearing(s) may be held on the same day as a regularly scheduled meeting, but must be handled as a separate meeting. Recommendation:
Timelines:
Keep in mind that if our proposed maximum for Pay 2027 is less than the Pay 2026 levy, we are not required to hold a truth in taxation hearing. We will not know our Pay 2027 levy amount until later this fall. Even though we may not need to hold a hearing, we still need to set a public hearing date at tonight’s meeting, in order to keep within the requirements and deadlines of the school district levy limitation and certification calendar |
