Ad Valorem Taxes History

The county’s general fund revenue from property tax has been flat at $133 million over the past three years, down from its highest point of $158M in FY08-09. As a result, the county has lost $9.2 million in buying power from inflation alone (6.9% during the last three years). I refer to this as silent cost cutting.

Majority of all taxing funds are well below the State Standard (growth in Florida per capita income plus growth in new construction)
