This notice concerns 2007 property tax rates for Jackson County Hospital District. It

presents information about three tax rates. Last year's tax rate is the actual rate the

taxing unit used to determine property taxes last year. This year's effective tax rate

would impose the same total taxes as last year if you compare properties taxed in

both years. This year's rollback tax rate is the highest tax rate the taxing unit can set

before taxpayers can start tax rollback procedures. In each case these rates are found

by dividing the total amount of taxes by the tax base (the total value of taxable

property) with adjustments as required by state law. The rates are given per $100 of

property value.

Last year's tax rate:

Last year's operating taxes

Last year's debt taxes

Last year's total taxes

Last year's tax base

Last year's total tax rate

This year's effective tax rate:

Last year's adjusted taxes

(after subtracting taxes on lost property)

÷ This year's adjusted tax base

(after subtracting value of new property)

= This year's effective tax rate

(Maximum rate unless unit publishes notices and holds hearings.)

This year's rollback tax rate:

Last year's adjusted operating taxes (after

subtracting taxes on lost property and adjusting

for any transferred function, tax increment

financing, and/or enhanced indigent health care

expenditures)

÷ This year's adjusted tax base

= This year's effective operating rate

x 1.08 = this year's maximum operating rate

+ This year's debt rate

= This year's total rollback rate

If Jackson County Hospital District adopts a 2007 tax rate equal to the effective tax

rate of $0.2247 per $100 of value, taxes would increase compared to 2006 taxes by
