During a recent board meeting, Judson ISD approved a tax rate of $1.2700 per $100 of assessed property value for the 2021-22 fiscal year.
The new rate is a $0.0049 decrease from last year’s rate of $1.2749 per $100 valuation, according to the district. The average home value in the district rose from $191,192 last year to $204,197 this year. As a result, JISD expects a minor increase in tax revenue under the new rate based on growth in the area.
District 4 representative Jose Macias said the board of education has decreased the tax rate two years in a row.
“I think it is pretty profound,” Macias said at the Sept. 16 board meeting. “We don’t find ourselves in that position very often.”
