an individual property's tax change from year to year. Separate from the
Referendum Tax Impact, a property may see a tax change resulting from FMV
Growth calculated at the Existing School Equalized Tax Rate. Below is an
estimate based on the FMV Growth Estimate entered above:

Definitions:
|
|
|
|
Fair Market Value (FMV): This value is shown on your property
tax bill. It is your municipality's estimate of your property's market value.
This value is used in conjunction with the school district equalized tax rate
to determine taxes due to the school district.
|
FMV Growth Estimate: This is your estimate for your property
value’s growth % for the current year. You won’t know the actual FMV for this
year until you receive your property tax bill in December. Several factors
can influence how your property value can change from year to year, but often
times the most influential factor is general real estate prices. It may be
helpful in estimating your FMV growth for this year to be familiar with
current real estate prices and how much your property’s FMV has changed in
recent years.
|
Equalized Tax Rate: The equalized tax rate is the rate per
$1,000 of FMV that a school levies across all municipalities in the district.
This rate is set by the district. The Impact is the change in equalized tax
rate from the previous year.
|
Net Tax Impact: This combines the Equalized Tax Rate Impact from
the Referendum with the change in taxes due to estimated FMV growth. While
the school has control over the Equalized Tax Rate for the district, it does
not have control over growth in FMV for properties in the district.
