Huffman Independent School District Proposition A: Tax Rate Ratification ($1.0637 per $100)
Huffman Independent School District, Texas
My vote power: High
What does this measure do?
Supports: Public Education Quality
Keeps Huffman ISD's school tax rate at $1.0637 per $100 of home value, the same total as last year but 3 cents more for operations than the state-set rate, raising about $2 million a year for a $4 million deficit, staff pay, and programs. Property owners see no net change in the rate.
Proposed by: Huffman Independent School District Board of Trustees (order calling the election)
The district's elected school board. Texas sets a limit on school property tax rates. If a district wants a higher rate, voters must approve it.
