2025 NO NEW REVENUE TAX RATE
$0.098888 per $100 appraised value
The No New Revenue Tax Rate is the tax rate for the 2025 tax year that will generate the same amount of property tax revenue for Harris County Emergency Service District 47 from the same properties taxed in both the 2024 tax year and the 2025 tax year. This rate was calculated by dividing the District's year 2024 Adjusted Tax Levy of $5,680,972 by the District's year 2025 Adjusted Taxable Value of $5,744,807,309 and then multiplying the result by $100.
2025 VOTER APPROVAL TAX RATE
$0.102664 per $100 appraised value
The Voter Approval Tax Rate is the tax rate for the 2025 tax year that will increase property tax revenue for Harris County Emergency Service District 47 by 3.5% over the District’s tax year 2024 amount. The Voter Approval Tax Rate is the highest tax rate that Harris County Emergency Services District 47 may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the proposed rate, unless the De Minimis Tax Rate for Harris County Emergency Services District 47 exceeds the Voter Approval Tax Rate for Harris County Emergency Services District 47.

2025 De MINIMIS TAX RATE
$0.107705 per $100 appraised value
