Discussion without Action Subject 8.01 2023 Tax Levy Workshop and Discussion Meeting Dec 4, 2023 - Meeting 7:00 p.m., Closed Session 5:00 p.m. District Administration Center, 203 W. Hillside Road, Naperville, IL 60540 Type Discussion Without Action STAFF CONTACT: Michael Frances, CFO/CSBO SUBJECT: Determination of the 2023 Tax Levy RECOMMENDATION: Approval of Tax Levy Determination as presented. BACKGROUND: Annually the District sets a tax levy which provides the District with over 85% of its total revenue. The setting of the annual tax levy is governed by the Truth in Taxation Law, School Code, Property Tax Code, and Property Tax Extension Limits Law (PTELL). Each of these laws has specific requirements that must be followed. Truth in Taxation Law (the "Act"): Requires that at least 20 days prior to the adoption of the levy, the Board of Education must estimate the aggregate levy for the year. Please note that because the 2023 estimated tax levy represents more than a 5% increase over last year’s extension, the District is required to publish a public notice and hold a public hearing on said tax levy. School Code and Property Tax Code: Requires that the final levy must be adopted and filed with the County Clerk on or before the last Tuesday in December, which is December 26 th this year. The following timetable will satisfy the requirements of the above laws: November 13, 2023 Estimate the tax levy December 18, 2023 Hold Public Hearing and Adopt the 2023 tax levy December 26, 2023 Last date to file the levy with the County Clerks. Property Tax Extension Limits Law (PTELL): PTELL limits the amount taxes (aggregate extension) can increase over the prior year’s tax extension. Three factors determine the allowable tax growth under the PTELL laws: 1) amount of the prior year’s tax extension, 2) the increase in the Consumer Price Index for Urban (CPI-U) as of December 2022 (6.5% but limited to 5.0% by PTELL) , and 3) the amount of new construction added to the Equalized Assessed Valuation (EAV). The first two items are already known, but the final new construction numbers will not be known until March 2024, so the District must estimate the amount of new construction. To that end, early estimates indicate the amount to be approximately $35 million, however, for levy purposes we have estimated the new construction at $50 million to ensure all additional new growth is captured. Once the final new construction numbers are known, the County Clerk will adjust the tax levy to reflect the final new construction number provided it does not exceed our estimate. Based on these factors the total extension is estimated to increase at 5.6% over the prior year’s taxes. Existing taxpayers will experience an average increase of 5.0%. Abatement of Debt Service Levy and Aggregate Extension: The Debt Service portion of the levy will be $1,213,250, which is levied by the County Clerk unless the District files tax abatement by March, 2024. Administration tentatively recommends abating the Debt Service Levy provided there is no significant change in financial condition. The Board will be asked to make the final decision regarding the Debt Service abatement at the March 4, 2024 board meeting once the District has more information about State and future local funding and the impact of any funding changes.
