FaCoTxCC 8/27/2026 – Court Grapples With Tax Rate & Budget Cuts, No Decisions Yet
The hot topics today were of course the budget and tax rate. The updated numbers indicate $2.1 million in new revenue & a tax rate increase of 8.4%. The Court discussed cutting the rate & the budget, but decisions were postponed to a special meeting next week. The majority seemed to coalesce around a one cent rate cut (approximately $600k) while the minority wanted even more cuts. Listen to the most consequential meeting of the year so far & learn whether the Court is fiscally conservative or liberal. You be the judge.
