Don’t brag about that, in fact, you SHOULD be going DOWN on the Millage Rate. Over the last 5 or so Years, you have approved MANY Micro-Subdivisions to be built all over the County and they ALL seem to be full of HIGH PRICED Homes. I see the Signs on many of them where they say New Homes “Starting in the Mid $200,000” or “Starting at $249,900” or “Starting at $269,900”, or “Starting at $349,900”. That is a LOT of NEW Property Tax coming in each Year so THAT should lower the “Millage Rate”, So don’t even think about RAISING IT.
