Waller ISD sets combined 2024 tax rate at $1.1069; board notes truth-in-taxation language requires 'increased' motion
Summary
Board accepted tax-rate worksheets and adopted a combined rate of $1.1069 (presented as a nominal decrease from 2023) but used statutory "increased" motion language required by Texas truth-in-taxation rules; vote was 7–0.
The Waller ISD Board of Trustees accepted the district’s tax-rate calculations and adopted a combined 2024 tax rate of $1.1069.
Director of Business Services Laura Padron presented the No New Revenue and Voter Approval tax-rate worksheets and the proposed combined rate. Padron said the proposed combined rate of $1.1069 is an overall decrease from the 2023 total tax rate of $1.1092, but under the state’s truth-in-taxation calculation the required motion language must state the rate is "increased." Trustee Ronald Campbell moved that the tax rate be increased by the adoption of a tax rate of 1.1069 in accordance with §26.05(b) of the Property Tax Code; Secretary Jeff Flukinger seconded and the motion passed 7–0–0.
