SECTION 7: Voter-Approval Tax Rate Adjustment for Emergency Revenue Rate
In the tax year after the end of the disaster calculation time period detailed in Tax Code Section 26.042(a), a taxing unit that calculated its
voter-approval tax rate in the manner provided for a special taxing unit due to a disaster must calculate its emergency revenue rate and
46
reduce its voter-approval tax rate for that year.
Similarly, if a taxing unit adopted a tax rate that exceeded its voter-approval tax rate, calculated normally, without holding an election to
respond to a disaster, as allowed by Tax Code Section 26.042(d), in the prior year, it must also reduce its voter-approval tax rate for the
47
current tax year .
NOTE: This section will not apply to any taxing units in 2021. It is added to implement Senate Bill 1438 (87th Regular Session) and
does not apply to a taxing unit that calculated its voter-approval tax rate in the manner provided for a special taxing unit due to a declared
disaster in 2020, as provided for in the recently repealed Tax Code Sections 26.04(c-1) and 26.041(c-1).
In future tax years, this section will apply to a taxing unit other than a special taxing unit that:
• directed the designated officer or employee to calculate the voter-approval tax rate of the taxing unit in the manner provided for a
special taxing unit in the prior year; and
• the current year is the first tax year in which the total taxable value of property taxable by the taxing unit as shown on the appraisal
roll for the taxing unit submitted by the assessor for the taxing unit to the governing body exceeds the total taxable value of
property taxable by the taxing unit on January 1 of the tax year in which the disaster occurred or the disaster occurred four years
ago.
In future tax years, this section will also apply to a taxing unit in a disaster area that adopted a tax rate greater than its voter-approval tax
rate without holding an election in the prior year.
Note: This section does not apply if a taxing unit is continuing to calculate its voter-approval tax rate in the manner provided for a special
taxing unit because it is still within the disaster calculation time period detailed in Tax Code Section 26.042(a) because it has not met the
conditions in Tax Code Section 26.042(a)(1) or (2).

separate Adjusted Voter-Approval Tax Rate for Taxing Units in Disaster Area Calculation N/A

from the worksheet.
