The Quinlan ISD Board approved a combined tax rate of $0.9252 (M&O $0.7552; I&S $0.17) on Aug. 19, 2024, a change the minutes describe as an effective 7.75% increase; the motion passed 6-0 with one trustee absent.
On Aug. 19, 2024, the Quinlan Independent School District Board of Trustees adopted a combined tax rate of $0.9252, allocating $0.7552 for Maintenance and Operations and $0.17 for Interest and Sinking. The motion to adopt the rate was made by Trustee Rusty Case and seconded by Trustee Todd Darter; the motion carried 6-0, with Trustee Dale Chreene recorded as absent.
Board minutes state the adoption was characterized as “effectively a 7.75 percent increase in the tax rate.” The adoption followed a presentation of the 2024 appraisal tax roll and the board’s earlier approval of a budget appendix used for tax-rate calculations. The board record indicates attachments with the tax-roll figures were provided for review.
The decision will affect local property tax bills for the coming year by combining the M&O and I&S components into the stated total rate. The board's official minutes do not record a roll-call breakdown of individual yes/no votes beyond the 6-0 tally; motions and seconds are recorded in the minutes as presented. The board did not record any dissenting floor remarks in the minutes. The district will proceed with the tax-rate adoption as reflected in the board's published minutes.
