The action was part of a special meeting on Monday, Aug. 1. During discussion on the tax rate, district Chief Financial Officer Clay Montgomery stated that he was recommending a tax rate of $1.1468 per $100 in valuation — up approximately 18 cents from last year’s tax rate of $0.9634 per $100 in valuation.
