Due to an error in the advertisement of the FY2019-2020 Budget Summary, the City is required to re-advertise and hold another Final Public Hearing on the millage rate for FY2019-2020. The City is also required to readopt and ratify Resolution No. 2019-16, which was originally approved on on September 24, 2019.
At the Public Hearing, the Mayor will announce the formal procedures, which must be followed in order to maintain compliance with Florida's laws and rules. The proposed millage rate is below the rollback rate; therefore, this process is simplified as the rules are in place to guarantee compliance when the effective tax rate increases. It is recommended that the City follow the proper protocol to remain in good standing with the Florida Department of Revenue and their property tax oversight role.
