Introduction - Project Overview

MSD Wayne Township is operating in a different fiscal

environment than in the past

tuition support and required services.

the following long-term planning projects

enrollment forecast.

tax base projections.

- Elements of strategic long term financial planning.

Marion County Property Tax Revenue

Distribution

12

• Taxing unit property tax revenue

determined by rate controls.

• Levy controlled funds act more like

rate controlled funds. Homesteads

limited at 1%, other residential at

2%, all other property at 3%.

• Once all parcels reach circuit

breaker, revenue growth only

occurs through growth in the tax

base.

• TIF activity can have negative

revenue implications through

higher circuit breaker losses.

• Taxing unit property tax revenue

determined by levy controls.

• Maximum levy growth determined

by change in Indiana personal

income.

• Revenue growth is virtually

guaranteed – tax rates adjust to

generate revenue necessary to fund

levies.

• TIF activity does not largely impact

property tax revenue for other

taxing units.

TIF Neutralization Process

• Required annually by DLGF in accordance with 50 IAC 8-2-

12. Procedure is mandated by DLGF.

• Legally required process which neutralizes the effect of

external factors on the base and the increment, to protect

the ability of the TIF district to pay debt service on

outstanding bonds.

• TIF neutralization outcomes:

– Adjust the base assessed value for market value trends

(either upward or downward, depending on market

conditions).

– Maintain at least as much incremental revenue in the

ensuing year as in the preceding year.

– Basis for initial debt service coverage projections.

Tax Base Forecast

What is the Outlook for AV Growth

in Wayne Township?

17

Forecast Issues

• Demographic changes affecting tax

base.

• Trends in sales prices and property tax

appeals.

• Residential homestead value compared

to other townships.

• Economic and income related trends.

• Existing long-term economic forecasts.

18

Tax Base Forecast

Methodology • Review long term assessed value trends to determine

the relationship between MSD Wayne tax base and

Marion County tax base.

• Relate economic variables to changes in tax base,

using an external, professionally accepted economic

forecast (Woods & Poole).

• Customize forecast using factors specific to Wayne

Township, and the characteristics of the properties

within Wayne Township.
