Value of City of Lawrence Property Tax Dollars
To figure monthly expense for city services:
Market value of home = $120,000
City mill rate = 28.987
First, determine assessed valuation by multiplying the value of home by 11.5%:
$120,000 x 11.5% = $13,800
Second, determine City property tax bill by multiplying assessed value by mill rate
levied by the city:
$13,800 x .028987 = $400.02
City Tax Liability = $400.02
Third, determine the monthly City property tax expenses for City service by dividing
the city property tax liability by 12 months:
$400.02/12 = $33.34
Monthly City Property Tax Expense = $33.34
2004 Recommended Budget
Revenue Estimate Assumptions
• Sales tax trend
-- Assumption of flat growth of
both local and county-wide
sales tax
• State transfer payments
-- LAVTR and state revenue
sharing transfers were not
included as revenue sources
• Assessed valuation
-- Increase in assessed valuation
to 7% over the previous year’s
6% increase
• Fee increases
-- ( Increases in Utilities, Solid
Waste, Cemetery, Golf Course,
and Aquatic)
-- Necessary to continue
providing quality services and
meeting regulations
• Fund balances
-- General fund expenditures
have exceeded revenue levels
resulting in lowering of fund
balance
• Interest on investments
-- Interest rates and related
earnings will continue to be less
than in previous years
