Pasco sets general fund millage at rollback rate, leaves transportation levy at zero
Summary
The county set the general fund millage at 7.2488 mills (equal to the rollback rate) and adopted a 0.000 mill rate for the Transportation Trust Fund; staff said higher taxable values added roughly $20.4 million in revenue.
At its final hearing the Pasco County board adopted a general fund millage of 7.2488 mills — equal to the rollback rate — and approved a zero millage for the Transportation Trust Fund.
"The millage rate for the general fund is 7.2488 mils, which is equal to the rollback rate," Budget Director Amy Farrell said, noting the county realized a 6.8% increase in taxable assessed values that produced an additional $20,400,000 in revenue. Farrell presented the millage tables and asked the board to accept public comment before voting; no members of the public spoke.
Commissioners moved and seconded the motions to adopt the general fund and transportation millage rates; both passed unanimously. Farrell said the board earlier directed staff to reduce the general operating millage and to reduce subsidy funding for development review services, with staff to return with a fee schedule and a budget amendment when ready.
