            Other  Taxes  (Franchise  Fees  &  Mixed  Beverage  Taxes)  are  comprised  of  mixed  beverage  and
            franchise taxes, with the latter accounting for approximately 96.1% of these revenues. Franchise taxes
            are fees charged for the continued use of public property (rights-of-way) and are collected from utility
            companies, including the City of Keller's Water & Wastewater Utility, and Drainage Utility funds. Revenues
            are based on trends that reflect decreasing cable franchise fees. In 2019 the Texas Legislature passed
            SB  1152,  which  relates  to  the  payment  of  certain  fees  to  municipalities  by  companies  that  provide
            telecommunications, cable or video services. Declines in franchise fee revenue may be attributed to this
            legislation. For FY 2024-25, an increase in electric franchise is anticipated. Mixed beverage tax is related
            to mixed alcohol beverage sales in restaurants and pubs within the city and is showing a slight increase.
