PROPERTY TAX RATE FOR CITY OF MCALLEN
A tax rate of $0.476300 per $100 valuation has been proposed for adoption by the governing body of City of McAllen. This rate exceeds the lower of the effective or rollback tax rate, and state law requires that two public hearings be held by the governing body before adopting the proposed tax rate.

| EFFECTIVE TAX RATE | $0.463597 per $100 |

The effective tax rate is the total tax rate needed to raise the same amount of property tax revenue for City of McAllen from the same properties in both the 2014 tax year and the 2015 tax year.
The rollback tax rate is the highest tax rate that City of McAllen may adopt before voters are entitled to petition for an election to limit the rate that may be approved to the rollback rate.
