Property Tax Rates for 2008, Part One

As promised this is part one of two, reviewing the tax rates as set by key taxing bodies in our City.

Park Hill School District
They have lowered their levy by two hundredths of one cent, in effect no change from last year to this year. Accounts for almost 60% of taxes due.

Weatherby Lake Fire Protection District
Lowered their levy ten cents from last year

Platte County
Lowered their levy by one cent.

Southern Platte County Ambulance Distict
Raised their levy by one cent. This is a story of the initial year’s levy being too high, and subsequently spending down of the excess funds. Look for another increase next year and certainly more than one cent.
