Georgetown ISD calls for property tax rate increase of $0.06 up to $1.1106
Hi all! My name is Hamera and I cover Georgeotwn ISD for Community Impact.
I just wanted to share something that I've spent the summer following: on Monday, GISD officials called for a voter-approval tax rate election that proposes to increase the district’s tax rate by $0.06 to $1.1106 per $100 valuation.
If passed, the VATRE would provide GISD with ~8.4 million to fund pay raises for staff. District leaders say the median homeowner with a homestead exemption will see a $7.97 increase in their annual property tax bill.
The VATRE will appear on the Nov. 3 ballot as “Georgetown Independent School District Proposition A."
