Briscoe Land Rendition Fueling School Tax Debate

Austin reports that Briscoe rendered 20.5 acres of his Dimmuit County ranch at 711 per acre for school tax purposes while nearby lands sold for 150 to 200 per acre. Superintendent Bailey testified to the House Education Committee, naming Bruce Ranch Inc as the taxpayer, and urged state takeovers to ease small district burdens. The issue ties to school finance hearings and a possible special session, with Briscoe opposing regular-session tax revisions. Bailey said two recent sales illustrate land values for tax assessments. The district reorganized tax practices to lessen county control, highlighting the poorest area conditions and aging facilities.
