Colleyville’s  property valuations for tax year 2021 (fiscal year 2022) are valued  at
               $6,213,549,734, and includes $60,415,888 in new construction. This represents an
               increase of $246,583,414 (4.1%) over the fiscal  year 2021 taxable value. The total
               taxable  value  includes  TIF  zone property, which  has  a  combined  taxable  value
               increment of $439,107,273 (TIF Zone #1 adopted in 1998- $422,931,176 and TIF
               Zone #1A adopted in 2012- $16,176,097). The final TIF value is subject to change,
               as  valuation  is  still  under  appeal. However,  this  does represent  a  decrease  of
               $11,854,488 (2.6%) over the current year TIF valuation. This decrease is at least
               partially  related to COVID-related business closures being a consideration for the
               appraisal district when assessing property values.

               The fiscal  year  2022 budget includes  a property tax rate of $0.291778 per $100
               value. The tax rate is comprised of an operation and maintenance rate of $0.280687,
               and an interest and sinking rate of $0.011091. The latter component provides funding
               for retirement of the annual debt obligations. The following table provides historical
               information on the City’s tax rate, average residential property value, and average
               property tax payment.

               Sales Tax
               The second major financial consideration guiding development of the budget is sales
               tax revenue. The City collects a total two percent sales tax: one percent for General
               Fund with  the remaining  one percent allocated  for two half-cent special  purpose
               districts. Sales tax has been budgeted at a conservative 4 percent decrease for fiscal
               year 2022 compared to fiscal year 2021. The decrease is an attempt to recognize
               that a portion of the City’s FY2021 sales tax revenue came from costs related to home
               repairs from the winter storm as well as a windfall from businesses opening back up
               in early  2021. The decrease is budgeted as a recognition that those events were
               outliers and the associated revenue cannot be counted on in future years.

               Licenses and Permits
               The City has conservatively budgeted license and permit revenue for fiscal year 2022,
               acknowledging the early stages of new residential development trends in Colleyville.
