Curry SUBJECT: Revenue Source Options DEPARTMENT: County Administrator BCC DISTRICT: ALL In preparation for discussion and approval of the FY 2013-2014 Okaloosa County Strategic Plan, a review of the sources of revenue for developing the Okaloosa County budget provides a broad picture of the current limitations and opportunities. The attached report outlines the current sources of revenue for Okaloosa County. Staff recommends the board review the report. RECOMMENDED BY: APPROVED BY: James D. Curry, County Administrator Packet Pg. 31 3.a.A REVENUE SOURCE AUTHORIZED BY THE CONSTITUTION General Information The ability of local governments to raise revenue for governmental operations is narrowly constrained by the State Constitution. With the exception of the ad valorem tax and several constitutionally authorized State shared revenue programs, local governments are dependent on the Attachment: 2013-2014 Strategic Plan-Rev Sources (1362 : Revenue Source Options) Legislature for the authority to levy any other forms of taxation, thereby increasing the relative importance of the ad valorem tax. Ad Valorem Tax Increasing property values is the largest potential source of revenue to support growth in service demands for most local governments. Based on Final 2013 Taxable Value of $13,565,838,217 Board of County Commissioners Taxes paid by Taxpayer Millage Rate Increase County Taxes Increase $100,000 Value Increase 3.2899 $42,398,739 $328.99 3.3500 0.0601 $43,173,280 $774,542 $335.00 $6.01 3.5000 0.2101 $45,106,412 $2,707,673 $350.00 $21.01 4.0000 0.7101 $51,550,185 $9,151,447 $400.00 $71.01 4.5000 1.2101 $57,993,958 $15,595,220 $450.00 $121.01 Before exemptions and discounts. County Furnishing Municipal Services General law implements the constitutional provision authorizing a county furnishing municipal services to levy additional taxes within the limits fixed for municipal purposes via the establishment of municipal service taxing or benefit units. The distinction between a municipal service taxing unit (MSTU) and a municipal service benefit unit (MSBU) is that a MSTU is the correct terminology when the mechanism used to fund the county services is derived through taxes rather than service charges or special assessments (i.e., MSBU). The creation of a MSTU allows the county’s governing body to place the burden of ad valorem taxes upon property in a geographic area less than countywide to fund a particular municipal-type service or services. Florida Statutes prescribes that appropriation of no less than 95.0% of all receipts reasonably anticipated being received from all sources, thereby establishing an Packet Pg. 32 3.a.A 10.3362
