Connellsville Area SD presenters place 16.2354-mill rate and related tax resolutions on board agenda
Summary
Finance presented a proposed 16.2354-mill real estate rate for the 2025-26 school year and asked that Act 511 and the homestead/farmstead exclusion resolutions be placed on the board agenda; no final votes were taken at the meeting.
Mr. Renzi, presenting for the finance section of the Connellsville Area SD board meeting, asked the board to place on the agenda a request to establish the 2025-26 real estate millage rate at 16.2354 mills and related tax resolutions, including Act 511 taxes and a homestead/farmstead exclusion resolution.
The proposals matter because the millage and the homestead/farmstead exclusion affect property-tax bills for district homeowners and farmstead applicants. During the meeting Mr. Renzi also told the board that the homestead change “will be a reduction on those who are approved for homestead farmsteads of 263 dollars and 30 cents off their real estate tax code.”
Mr. Renzi presented the millage figure and attempted to clarify the per-$1,000 conversion during his remarks; the transcript shows the presenter using decimals to clarify the rate but the meeting record did not include a finalized per-$1,000 phrasing. Board members asked no questions and the presenter repeatedly moved the items to be placed on the agenda for future action rather than asking the full board to adopt the tax measures in that meeting.
No final votes, approvals, or amendments for the millage or tax resolutions were recorded during the segment: the board action taken at the meeting was to place the proposed millage rate and the related tax resolutions on a forthcoming board agenda for consideration and formal vote.
