RII ,,, NOTICE OF PROPOSED
o4 . V,
} 5 REAL PROPERTY TAX
4'io ll INCREASE
Tax Increase Caused by Increase in Annual Assessment
The City of Virginia Beach proposes to increase property tax levies.
1. Assessment Increase: Total assessed value of real property,
excluding additional assessments due to new construction or
improvements to property,exceeds last year's total assessed value of
real property by 2.91 percent.
2. Lowered Rate Necessary to Offset Increased Assessment: The tax
rate which would levy the same amount of real estate tax as last year,
when multiplied by the new total assessed value of real estate with the
exclusions mentioned above,would be$0.9887 per$100 of assessed
value. This rate will be known as the"lowered tax rate."
3. Effective Rate Increase: The City of Virginia Beach proposes to adopt
a tax rate of $1.0075 per $100 of assessed value. The difference
between the lowered tax rate and the proposed rate would be$0.0188
per $100, or 1.90 percent. This difference will be known as the
"effective tax rate increase."
Individual property taxes may, however, increase at a percentage
greater than or less than the above percentage.
4. Proposed Total Budget Increase: Based on the proposed real
property tax rate and changes in other revenues, the total budget of
the City of Virginia Beach will exceed last year's by 6.1 percent.
A public hearing on the increase will be held on April 27,2021,at 6 p.m. In
accordance with§ 15.2-1413 of the Code of Virginia,the City's Continuity of
