NOTICE OF PROPOSED PROPERTY TAXES EXPLANATION (Section 200.069, Florida Statutes)

*COLUMN 1—"YOUR PROPERTY TAXES LAST YEAR" - This column shows the taxes that applied last year to your property. These amounts were based on budgets adopted last year and your property’s previous taxable value. *COLUMN 2—"YOUR TAXES IF NO BUDGET CHANGE IS ADOPTED" - This column shows what your taxes will be this year IF EACH TAXING AUTHORITY DOES NOT CHANGE ITS PROPERTY TAX LEVY. These amounts are based on last year’s budgets and your current assessment. *COLUMN 3—"YOUR TAXES IF PROPOSED BUDGET CHANGE IS ADOPTED" - This column shows what your taxes will be this year under the BUDGET ACTUALLY PROPOSED by each local taxing authority. The proposal is NOT final and may be amended at the public hearings shown on this notice. The difference between Columns 2 and 3 is the tax change proposed by each local taxing authority and is NOT the result of higher assessments.

NOTE: Amounts shown on this form do NOT reflect early payment discounts you may have received or may be eligible to receive. (Discounts are a maximum of 4 percent of the amounts shown on this form.)

NON-AD VALOREM ASSESSMENTS: Your final tax bill may contain non-ad valorem assessments which may not be reflected on this notice such as assessments for roads, fire, garbage, lighting, drainage, water, sewer, or other governmental services and facilities which may be levied by your county, city, or any special district

PROPERTY VALUATION
Last Year 2017 This Year 2018
MARKET VALUE $165,543 $171,197
Market Value in Florida is also known as “just value” as provided by the constitution and described in state law. It is the amount a purchaser willing but not obliged to buy would pay to one willing but not obliged to sell, after proper consideration of all eight factors in section 193.011, F.S.
ASSESSED VALUE
Assessed Value is the market value of your property minus the amount of any assessment reductions. The assessed value may be different for millage levies made by different taxing authorities.
ASSESSMENT REDUCTIONS APPLIES TO VALUE
Assessment Reduction amounts are based on applicable statutory limitations and benefits that may affect the Assessed Value, such as the Save Our Homes cap or an Agricultural Classification. The value of these limitations and benefits make up the difference between market and assessed value.
Save Our Homes Benefit All Levies $38,393
EXEMPTIONS APPLIES TO VALUE
Exemptions are specific dollar or percentage amounts that reduce taxable value. These are usually based on characteristics of the property or property owner. Examples include the homestead exemption, veterans' disability exemptions and charitable exemptions. In some cases, the maximum exemption amount may not be applied because of a lower assessed value. Many exemptions apply only to tax levies by the taxing authority granting the exemption.
Homestead Exemption Adopted Levies $25,000
Additional Homestead Exemption Adopted Levies $25,000
Disability All Levies $5,000
VALUE CALCULATIONS
Taxable Value is the assessed value minus qualifying exemptions. This is the value used to calculate the tax due on your property. The asssessed and taxable values may vary by taxing authority because certain assessment reductions and exemptions may not apply to all levies and discounts.
