end
Background and Discussion: N/A
Pursuant to Sec. 26.04, of the Texas Tax Code, I am submitting the 2024 Certified Estimate of Taxable Value for use in proposing property tax rates. This determination is based on my review of 26.01 (a-1) certified estimated taxable value received from the Harris Central Appraisal District (HCAD) on July 25, 2024, for Harris County, the Harris County Flood Control District, Harris County Port of Houston Authority and Harris County Hospital District dba Harris Health.
Expected Impact: N/A
The 2024 Certified Estimate values are as follows:
Taxing Unit Taxable Value New Property
Harris County $666,009,234,910 $15,719,851,614
HC Flood Control District $652,547,552,161 $15,720,113,727
HC Port of Houston Authority $652,443,136,367 $15,720,113,727
HC Hospital District $652,645,613,538 $15,720,113,727
These values include the taxable value of property estimated by the HCAD, the estimated taxable values have taken into account potential hearing loss under Appraisal Review Board protest, and other property not under protest or included on the certified roll. No reduction in taxable value has been made for the captured taxable value of tax increment reinvestment zones. The Harris County values also include $87,347,083 for railroad rolling stock, provided by the State Comptroller of Public Accounts, and exclude the reduction for the Freeport exemption not adopted by Harris County.
In addition, as required by Section 26.04, I certify that the estimated collection rate for the taxing units are County 96.94%, Flood Control District 97.01%, Port of Houston Authority 96.72%, Hospital District 96.90%. There were no debt taxes collected in excess of the anticipated amount in the preceding year due to a change in the collection rate for any of these taxing units.
