Schools

Sustainability ChallengesI b l b t i l/ id ti l t b• Imbalance between commercial/residential tax base

– The larger the percentage of assessed valuation composed of student-producing properties, the greater the responsibility on local taxpayers

• Impact of current TIF projects• Impact of current TIF projects– 2008 Lee’s Summit TIF assessed valuation is $48,883,536– Current TIF projects equal $2,852,794 annually in unrealized revenue for R-7

U t i t di t t• Uncertainty regarding county assessment– Unusually high reduction in assessment value increases beyond what could be

projected from a slow economy – Negative impact on property tax revenue planned by the district

Reduction of district’s ‘no tax increase’ bonding capacity– Reduction of district s no tax increase bonding capacity– Continued lower assessment increases will necessitate consideration for

operating tax levy increase ballot issues
