Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
California Government Code Section 29100 et seq. requires the Board of Supervisors of the County to adopt by resolution the rates of taxes on the secured roll.
Article XIIIA of the California Constitution and Sections 93 and 100 of the Revenue and Taxation Code limit the property tax rate for local agencies at 1%.
Other rates are set for voter-approved indebtedness to produce the amount necessary to finance the current year's debt service requirement. Tax rates for bonded indebtedness are calculated by dividing the amount required for debt service by the net assessed value of the property within the jurisdiction. The calculated rate may be modified to reflect delinquencies, anticipated changes in the tax roll and cash flow requirements. |

Local jurisdictions surrounding Yolo County provided tax rates for overlapping areas. |
