  6. The ProblemA rollback in the 18 mills non-homestead tax occurs primarily in high growth areas in the state like _____.It is triggered when property is sold and re-valued at a level much higher that the rate of inflation. This causes the 18 mills to be rolled back (currently at 17.7084 mills in _____).

  7. Example:In _____ when a 100 acre parcel of vacant (non-homestead) land is sold for $1,000,000 it may then come onto the tax rolls as 85 individual building sites for a new subdivision valued at $40,000 each. New taxable value: $3,400,000This extra $2,400,000 of non-homestead property value (along with numerous other “similar” sales) triggers the “Headlee Rollback” of the 18 mills non-homestead millage.

  8. The SolutionTo restore full foundation grant funding there are only two (2) available options.

  9. Option 1The first option for school districts that have a Headlee Rollback is to simply hold an override vote.If successful, this vote would restore the full 18 mills.This option is not a good one for _____ because growth is continuing and the 18 mills will be most likely rolled back again in the future.This option could require an override vote every year.

  10. Option 2A second option this is being used by school districts is to request more mills than are needed to override Headlee. Districts are requesting authorization to levy 20 or 21 mills. The state law prohibits Districts from levying more that 18 mills. Headlee reduces the authorized millage rate, not the levied rate. If a rollback occurs, it is applied to the 20 or 21 mills, not the 18 mills levied. This means there is no impact on the 18 mills levy for a number of years. This increase is rationalized by districts saying that it will eliminate the need to come back again and again to ask for the same 18 mill levy.
