Directors of the Lower Brushy Creek WCID will hold a public hearing on the proposed budget and the supporting property tax rates at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 10 at the Taylor Public Library, 801 Vance Street.

You can see a copy of the tax notice here.

The district proposes to increase slightly the tax rate for the coming fiscal year, from 1.6546 cents per $100 of valuation to 1.6949 cents. That’s an increase of .0403 cents per $100, a 2.43% increase.

The rate would mean that the owner of a house that is valued at $309,970.00, which is the average value of a home in the district, would pay $52.53 in property taxes to the WCID in 2026.

As the directors meet for this public hearing, they will also hold their regular September meeting. You can find a copy of the agenda and board packet here.

The regular meeting and the tax hearing is open to the public.
