What is a Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE)?
If a school district adopts a maintenance & operations (M&O) tax rate that exceeds the maximum amount provided by the state, a Voter-Approval Tax Rate Election (VATRE) must be held to seek voter approval of the adopted tax rate.
San Marcos CISD Tax Rate:
If San Marcos CISD voters approve the VATRE, the total tax rate will be $1.0152, which represents a .024 total tax rate increase from the prior year and will generate a net of $2.8 million in additional M&O funds for San Marcos CISD, not subject to recapture.
If San Marcos CISD voters do not approve the VATRE, the total tax rate will be $0.9952, which represents a .004 total tax rate increase from the prior year and will not generate any additional M&O funds for San Marcos CISD.
