People ask me why the Royal taxes keep going up. Here are some of the reasons why. The school board raises (sets) our taxes in August. Here's the link. https://meetings.boardbook.org/Public/Organization/2229 Vote for CHANGE... in your pocket! Mona, Kent Kirby, Gary Cruseturner, and John JJ Mounsey.

ADDED - Yes. Recently our property taxes increased because the appraisal valuations increased. But my point on this post was that Scott Hartman voted for the School Board to raise taxes in 2015 and 2016. Maybe you are not struggling financially, but many people in our community are struggling to pay the bills. With all the new industry here and the increased property values, we could decrease the property tax rate, and still have more tax revenue. And that would help the people of our community.

The TRE is a separate issue. The TRE canceled out our mandated tax break of a maximum Operations tax rate. And the TRE moved tax revenue from paying off our debt, to paying for operations, like on LaRay’s post from Amazon. https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/1243241/Tax_Rate_History.pdf
