Summary

Council members were presented with an ordinance setting Ballinger's 2025 tax rate at 0.567902 — described in the meeting as effectively a 1.62 increase — which appears in the council packet for consideration during the budget process.

The Chair presented an ordinance in the council packet to set the city of Ballinger’s 2025 tax rate at 0.567902 and characterized that rate as effectively a 1.62 increase. The presentation was given as part of budget and tax-rate materials included in the packet.

"In your packet is an ordinance of the city of Ballinger approving and adopting the city's tax rate for the tax year 2025, which is point 0.567902, which is effectively and a 1.62 increase in the tax rate as set," the Chair stated while introducing the item. The transcript records the rate and the council moved on to other agenda items; a separate recorded vote specifically labeled for the tax-rate ordinance is not distinct from the budget actions recorded earlier in the session.
