A tax rate of $0.821375 per $100 valuation has been proposed by the governing body of Jersey Village.
PROPOSED TAX RATE
$0.821375 per $100
NO-NEW-REVENUE TAX RATE
$0.800558 per $100
VOTER-APPROVAL TAX RATE

The no-new-revenue tax rate is the tax rate for the 2026 tax year that will raise the same amount of

tax year.
The voter-approval rate is the highest tax rate that Jersey Village may adopt without holding an
election to seek voter approval of the rate.
The proposed tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that Jersey Village is
proposing to increase property taxes for the 2026 tax year.
A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED TAX RATE WILL BE HELD ON August 18, 2026 AT 7:00 PM AT
Civic Center, 16327 Lakeview Dr, Jersey Village, TX 77040.
The proposed tax rate is not greater than the voter-approval tax rate. As a result, Jersey Village is not

may express your support for or opposition to the proposed tax rate by contacting the members of the
City Council of Jersey Village at their offices or by attending the public hearing mentioned above.
