St. John the Baptist Parish School Board adopts 2022 millage rates
Summary
The board approved a resolution levying multiple millages on the 2022 tax roll, setting school-district regular support, M&O, salaries and several bond millages and directing officials to collect the taxes in accordance with state law.
The St. John the Baptist Parish School Board voted to adopt a resolution levying millages on the 2022 tax roll at its May 26, 2022 meeting in Reserve.
During business and finance, a motion by Sanders, seconded by Triche, carried on roll call with nine members voting yes and two absent. The adopted resolution lists specific millage rates for School District No. 1, including 3.710 mills for regular support, 4.330 mills for maintenance and operations, 3.470 mills for additional funding, 10.560 mills for salaries and benefits, 8.000 mills for support and several bond millages ranging from 0.190 to 5.620 mills. The resolution empowers parish administrative officials to spread the taxes on the assessment roll and make collections "according to law."
Board President Nia Mitchell-Williams presided over the adoption; the resolution was certified in the minutes and signed as the official record. The board record does not specify estimated revenue amounts generated by the millages or their allocation beyond the labeled purposes.
The millage resolution will be placed on the parish assessment roll for 2022 and becomes a lien on taxable property until collected, as reflected in the board's adopted language. The board did not announce a separate public hearing on the levy during the meeting.
