A great article in The Texas Tribune (by Chris Essig, Ben Hasson and Brandon Formby) concerning proposed legislation to modify how property tax rates are set:
“Senate Bill 2 and House Bill 2 — both dubbed the Texas Property Tax Reform and Relief Act of 2019 — won’t provide across-the-board cuts to property tax bills. Instead, the bills would limit the amount of revenue that local governments like cities, counties and special districts can collect without voter approval.”
