                 under ARB protest. The list shows the appraisal district's value and the taxpayer's claimed value, if any,
                 or an estimate of the value if the taxpayer wins. For each of the properties under protest, use the lowest
                                                14                                    S  33,125,148

                 that are still under protest. On this list of properties, the chief appraiser includes the market value,
                 appraised value and exemptions for the preceding year and a reasonable estimate of the market value,

        SECTION 2: Voter Approval Tax Rate
       The voter-approval tax rate is the highest tax rate that a taxing unit may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate. The voter-approval tax rate is split
       into two separate rates:
       1.  Maintenance and Operations (M&O) Tax Rate: The M&O portion is the tax rate that is needed to raise the same amount of taxes that the taxing unit levied in the prior year
         plus the applicable percentage allowed by law. This rate accounts for such things as salaries, utilities and day-to-day operations.
       2.  Debt Rate: The debt rate includes the debt service necessary to pay the taxing unit's debt payments in the coming year. This rate accounts for principal and interest on bonds
         and other debt secured by property tax revenue.
       The voter-approval tax rate for a county is the sum of the voter-approval tax rates calculated for each type of tax the county levies. In most cases the voter-approval tax rate
       exceeds the no-new-revenue tax rate, but occasionally decreases in a taxing unit's debt service will cause the NNR tax rate to be higher than the voter-approval tax rate.
