The proposed operating millage rate of 2.4714 as submitted on the DR-420 is 9.79% less than the rolled-back rate. Resolution No. 2009-45 will establish the 2009-2010 tentative millage rates. It is recommended that the tentative millage rates not vary from the proQosed millage rates that were previously established. ^ The operating millage for the current fiscal year 2008-2009 is 2.4714 mills. The voted debt service millage for the current fiscal year 2008-2009 is 0.1100 mills. ^ The FY 2009-2010 Proposed Budget reflected an operating millage rate of 2.4714 mills. ^ The rolled-back rate for fiscal year 2009-2010 is 2.7395 mills. ^ Any subsequent revisions by the City Commission to the tentative millage rates and/or the tentative budget will be reflected in the Final Millage and Final Budget Hearings scheduled for September 28, 2009 at 5:15 p.m. However, the tentative millage rates that are established tonight can not be exceeded at the final hearing.
