The board adopted a tax-rate resolution after the budget workshop discussion. A trustee moved that the board adopt Resolution 2026-2027-01 to set the 2026 tax rate at 0.74820 for maintenance and operations and 0.28879 for the interest and sinking fund, for a total rate of 1.03699. The motion text recorded the effective percentage increase as 0.27664%.
After a second and limited procedural discussion to confirm the motion language, the board voted and the chair announced the motion passed. The transcript did not record individual roll-call votes or dissenting votes; the action was recorded as approved on the record.
The tax-rate components and the total rate were read on the record during the motion. The board previously received examples of estimated homeowner impacts during the budget workshop.
The board's formal adoption of the tax rate concludes the district's required public-notice steps for the levy this fiscal year and authorizes staff to finalize calculations and publish required notices.
