What Comal’s 2026 emergency services district rates mean for residents

Residents with $300,000 in taxable value can expect an annual ESD levy that varies by district under Comal County’s adopted 2026 rates.

Comal County’s seven adopted 2026 emergency services district rates range from $0.048438 to $0.100000 per $100 of taxable value, or a hypothetical $145.31 to $300 a year on $300,000 in taxable value.

The county’s adopted-rate table lists the rates; a Comal.News calculation applies each one to the same taxable-value example.

At that taxable value, the lowest example is ESD 7’s $145.31 annual levy; the highest is ESD 5’s $300. These are ESD taxes alone, not a household’s total property-tax bill. Residents’ ESD taxes depend on district boundaries and their own taxable value, so the example is not an individual tax bill.

Adopted 2026 ESD rates and hypothetical annual ESD levies
DistrictRate per $100Annual ESD levy
ESD 1$0.077556$232.67
ESD 2$0.059030$177.09
ESD 3$0.067235$201.70
ESD 4$0.084393$253.18
ESD 5$0.100000$300.00
ESD 6$0.095475$286.42
ESD 7$0.048438$145.31

Annual examples are Comal.News calculations from the county’s adopted rates. They exclude exemptions, other taxing units and property location.

To check the applicable rate, readers can inspect their district’s row in the county’s 2026 taxing-unit table. The table establishes each adopted rate; a property’s district and taxable value determine which calculation applies to its bill.
