City of Cape Canaveral City Council Agenda Form Special City Council Meeting Date: 09/03/2014 Item No. Subject: Resolution 2014-24; adopting a Proposed Millage Rate for the levy of Ad Valorem Taxes for Fiscal Year 2014/2015 on all taxable property located within the City of Cape Canaveral, Brevard County, Florida; providing for an effective date. Department: Financial Services Summary: Formerly, the City of Cape Canaveral had a levy of four separate millages: Police, Fire/Rescue, Beautification and Library. This Ad Valorem Tax structure has changed going forward for the Fiscal Year 2014/2015 Tax Year. Through consultation and coordination with the Brevard County Property Appraiser's Office (BCPAO) to help simplify, streamline and consolidate the tax structure, the BCPAO approved for the City of Cape Canaveral on May 30, 2014 to levy two millages: General Government and Library. The General Government millage consolidates the previous three categories of Police, Fire/Rescue and Beautification. Staff recommends adoption of a Combined Rate of 3.7246 mills for FY 2014/15, which represents the rolled back rate. This includes two segments: General Government milia a 3.6580 mills Library Dependent Special District 0.0666 mills These rates are those identified in the Fiscal Year 2014/15 Proposed Budget. Per "Truth in Millage Compliance", the Ad Valorem Tax Rates can be lowered from the initial rate proposed. However, no tax rate can be increased. There will be one more meeting concerning the Ad Valorem Tax rate to be implemented for the City's Fiscal Year 2014/15 Budget. It will be held on September 16, 2014 at 5:30 pm, at which time a Final Millage rate will be adopted. Submitting Department Director: John DeLeo ... Date: 08/22/2014 Attachment: Resolution 2014-24 Financial Impact: The Proposed Millage Rate of 3.7246 provides a property tax revenue stream of $3,289,689. These revenues are represented in the Proposed FY 2014/15 Budget at a 95% receipt rate and allow for a balanced budget.
