Estimated Taxes for Fiscal Year 2018-19

Beaverton’s tax rate for FY 2018-19 is expected to increase by 5 cents to $4.43. The 5 cent increase is dedicated to two areas; 3 cents for the Library’s operations and 2 cents for the Police Department’s operations to hire two additional police officers. This rate, when applied to Beaverton’s total taxable assessed valuation of $10,243,540,000, will produce revenues of $41,925,288.  Your $4.43 tax rate is comprised of two components:

• $0.21 for debt service on the library building and the new Public Safety Building
• $4.22 for general government operations (police, library, and street lighting)

General government operations tax levy is subject to Measure 50. Provisions of Measure 50 established a maximum permanent tax rate. The City’s maximum permanent tax rate is $4.62.Our citizens approved this new property tax base in November 1996. The new tax base will fund public safety needs in proportion to the City’s population growth.
