Adopted tax rate = $1.1494 per $100 assessment

The Belton ISD Board of Trustees adopted the 2024-2025 Fiscal Year budget and tax rate. The $150,859,691 adopted budget reflects a 1% increase over the previous fiscal year. This increase is primarily attributed to rising operating costs. Expenditures were reduced by $4,947,822 to offset declining revenues and provide for a 1% pay increase for staff. Belton ISD believes in the investment of its staff and strives to be competitive in attracting and retaining exceptional employees. The Board of Trustees also adopted a decreased tax rate for the sixth year in a row. The adopted rate of $1.1494 per $100 of assessed value
includes $0.7552 for maintenance and operations and $0.3942 for debt service. This is a $0.0023 decrease from last year’s tax rate. Despite the decrease in rate: THIS TAX RATE WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS THAN LAST YEAR’S TAX RATE.
