NO-NEW-REVENUE TAX RATE $0.551675 per $100
VOTER-APPROVAL TAX RATE $0.714766 per $100
The no-new-revenue tax rate is the tax rate for the 2023 tax year that will raise the same amount of property tax revenue for City of Pearland from the same properties in both the 2022 tax year and the 2023 tax year.
The voter-approval tax rate is the highest tax rate that City of Pearland may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate.
The proposed tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that City of Pearland is proposing to increase property taxes for the 2023 tax year.
A public hearing on the proposed tax rate will be held on September 25, 2023 at City Hall Council Chambers, 3519 Liberty Dr., Pearland, TX 77581.
The proposed tax rate is not greater than the voter-approval tax rate. As a result, City of Pearland is not required to hold an election at which voters may accept or reject the proposed tax rate.
However, you may express your support for or opposition to the proposed tax rate by contacting the members of the City Council of City of Pearland at their offices or by attending the public hearing mentioned above.
Your taxes owed under any of the tax rates mentioned above can be calculated as follows:
Property tax amount = tax rate x taxable value of your property / 100
