Financial DetailsOfficial Bond Info
Estimated rate: 6% over 20 years. Annual tax impact: $0.00.
Fort Worth projects no property tax rate increase for any proposition. The city absorbs new debt through organic assessed value growth and strategic retirement of older bonds. However, state-mandated ballot language reads 'THIS IS A TAX INCREASE' — a legal requirement that does not reflect an actual rate change.
Who Benefits
All Fort Worth residents through improved public safety infrastructure, emergency response capacity, and communications systems.
