Texas Legislature Proposes Tax Rate Amendment
Be it resolved to amend Section 9 Article VIII of the Texas Constitution to cap state property tax at 35 cents per $100 valuation and limit county city and town general fund taxes to 80 cents per $100, with commissioners courts setting four constitutional purpose rates for the year and ensuring bonds or obligations are not impaired. The measure allows the Court to levy the needed rate for four funds while keeping total levies under 80 cents per $100.
