Fair Oaks Ranch City Council is scheduled Thursday to set the highest property-tax rate it may consider for fiscal 2027, but the public packet posted before the meeting does not contain the completed no-new-revenue rate, voter-approval rate or staff’s final recommendation.
The council meets at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 6 in the Public Safety Training Room at the Police Station, 7286 Dietz Elkhorn Road. The proposed resolution would also set a Sept. 17 public hearing on the budget and tax rate.

The proposed tax rate establishes the highest tax rate the City Council may consider during the budget adoption process.CivicClerk Upcoming Meetings API ↗
During its July budget workshop, council directed staff to use $0.30697 per $100 of taxable value as the maximum rate for preparing the proposed budget, notices and the Aug. 6 resolution. That direction appears in the prior meeting minutes included in Thursday’s packet.
The new tax item says staff had not received the completed 2026 tax-rate worksheet from the Bexar County Tax Assessor-Collector when the agenda was posted. The draft resolution consequently shows placeholders of “$0.xxxx” for the no-new-revenue, voter-approval and proposed rates.
Staff expects to present the completed calculations, certified taxable values, exemption information and recommended proposed rate at the meeting. The packet says the worksheet will also be placed on the city’s Truth-in-Taxation webpage.
