SECTION 5: Voter-Approval Tax Rate Adjustment for Unused Increment Rate
The unused increment rate is the rate equal to the difference between the adopted tax rate and voter-approval tax rate before the unused increment rate for the prior three years. In
39
a year where a taxing unit adopts a rate by applying any portion of the unused increment rate, the unused increment rate for that year would be zero.
The difference between the adopted tax rate and voter-approval tax rate is considered zero in the following scenarios:
• a tax year before 2020; 40
• a tax year in which the municipality is a defunding municipality, as defined by Tax Code Section 26.0501(a); or
41
• after Jan. 1, 2022, a tax year in which the comptroller determines that the county implemented a budget reduction or reallocation described by Local Government
Code Section 120.002(a) without the required voter approval. 42
This section should only be completed by a taxing unit that does not meet the definition of a special taxing unit. 43

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 reduce its voter-approval tax rate for that year. 46
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 current tax year. 47
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.
