GENERAL INFORMATION: Tax Code Section 26.04(c) requires an officer or employee designated by the governing body to calculate the no-new-revenue (NNR) tax rate and
voter-approval tax rate for the taxing unit. These tax rates are expressed in dollars per $100 of taxable value calculated. The calculation process starts after the chief appraiser
delivers to the taxing unit the certified appraisal roll and the estimated values of properties under protest. The designated officer or employee shall certify that the officer or
employee has accurately calculated the tax rates and used values shown for the certified appraisal roll or certified estimate. The officer or employee submits the rates to the
governing body by Aug. 7 or as soon thereafter as practicable.
School districts do not use this form, but instead use Comptroller Form 50-859 Tax Rate Calculation Worksheet, School District without Chapter 313 Agreements or Comptroller Form
50-884 Tax Rate Calculation Worksheet, School District with Chapter 313 Agreements.
Water districts as defined under Water Code Section 49.001(1) do not use this form, but instead use Comptroller Form 50-858 Water District Voter-Approval Tax Rate Worksheet for
Low Tax Rate and Developing Districts or Comptroller Form 50-860 Developed Water District Voter-Approval Tax Rate Worksheet.
The Comptroller’s office provides this worksheet to assist taxing units in determining tax rates. The information provided in this worksheet is offered as technical assistance and not
legal advice. Taxing units should consult legal counsel for interpretations of law regarding tax rate preparation and adoption.
SECTION 1: No-New-Revenue Tax Rate
The NNR tax rate enables the public to evaluate the relationship between taxes for the prior year and for the current year based on a tax rate that would produce the same amount
of taxes (no new taxes) if applied to the same properties that are taxed in both years. When appraisal values increase, the NNR tax rate should decrease.
The NNR tax rate for a county is the sum of the NNR tax rates calculated for each type of tax the county levies.
While uncommon, it is possible for a taxing unit to provide an exemption for only maintenance and operations taxes. In this case, the taxing unit will need to calculate the NNR tax
rate separately for the maintenance and operations tax and the debt tax, then add the two components together.
