Revenue neutral rate

ASHEVILLE - After gettingtheir new government-appraisedproperty values, many city owners of houses and other property have been bracing themselves for a possible hefty tax bill hike for the July 1 fiscal year. But one option that Asheville could take would limit thosetax increasesor even bring some city property owners a tax decrease. That would be to apply a"revenue neutral" tax rate, something the city is in the process of calculating, according to April 13 and 14 comments from Asheville Finance Director Tony McDowell. "And we're also at this pointassuming the City Council will adopt the revenue neutral property tax rate," said McDowell, who was recently promoted from More: It is the responsibility of City Manager Debra Campbell to present a proposed budget to the council, the body that has the final say on the tax rate. The revenue neutral rate cannotyet be calculated, but it meansthe current Asheville rate of42.89 cents per $100 of assessed property value will be lowered to the point that the city in the next July 1 fiscal year will bring in the same amount of revenue, plus the extra from new construction. The smaller tax rate would offset some or all of the increases property owners got with the new government-assessed values for their land, houses and other buildings. Tax bills are calculated by multiplying the tax rate per $100 of assessed value. That means the owner of a home valued at $250,000 paid $1,072.25 in city taxes this fiscal year. (That does not count Bun...

LANDIS — Landis town officials approved the budget for the upcoming fiscal year earlier this month and are dropping the tax rate by 4 cents, but tax bills will still go up. The new tax rate of $0.49 per $100 will be for all real and personal property. Like all the municipalities in Rowan County, Landis was subject to a reassessment, aligning home values with current market trends. And like many other places around the county, average home values in Landis increased. While the budget does provide a decrease of $0.04 per $100 valuation on property taxes, it is not reduced enough to reach a revenue-neutral rate. A revenue-neutral rate is the figure that means the town collects the same revenue as the year before. For Landis, which previously had a tax rate of $0.53 per $100 valuation, to obtain a revenue-neutral rate would require taking the tax rate to $0.35 per $100 valuation. The change reflects an average reassessment increase of more than one third in property values. The new tax rate is based on an estimated total valuation of property for the purposes of taxation of $434,257,473 at an estimated collection rate of 98 percent for real and personal property, excluding motor vehicles. The estimated rate of collections is based on the fiscal year ending 2022. A memo from the newly-appointed Landis town manager, Michael Ambrose, indicated that the decrease will “still allow (Landis) to grow and keep us in good financial position.” Property taxes make up the most significant ...
