3 Oregon Park District 2013 Levy The tax generated by the Oregon Park District is a calculation of the property tax levy, the property tax rate, and the equalized assessed value (EAV). EAV multiplied by Tax Rate = Property Tax Revenue I. The EAV of the Oregon Park District changes on an annual basis. The EAV is determined by the Ogle County Assessment Office for all the taxable property within the Oregon Park District boundaries. II. The Oregon Park District determines a property tax levy for each calendar tax year. The estimated levy compared to the EAV determines the rate at which the property owner within the Oregon Park District will be taxed. III. The desired levy of the Oregon Park District multiplied by the current EAV determines the Property Tax Revenue that will be received from the collection of taxes within the Oregon Park District boundaries. The primary source of the District's tax base is the Exelon Generation Station. The 2011 tax year represented the final year of the previous real property tax assessment agreement. The OCIA (Ogle County Intergovernmental Association), which includes the District, is currently meeting to discuss the possibility of a future agreement with Exelon. The budget and levy assumptions for the 2013 tax year will be directly impacted by future negotiations, the board of review, PTAB, and possible court decisions. While the expected Equalized Assessed Value of the District is approximately 638 Million (early estimation established by the Assessment Office in October), the District will levy its Corporate and Recreation funds at a higher rate to capture any additional real estate revenue in the event that the EAV increases between the filing of the annual tax levy and final established EAV. The increased levy amount in the corporate and recreation funds is typically minimal. The 2013 tax levy directly funds the Districts fiscal year. The County Treasurers office will collect the 2013 tax revenue in two installments (June and September) of The Park District will then receive its share of the tax revenue following those two collections. The District will be focused on financial and capital planning in the fiscal year. The District commissioned a strategic financial plan in association with Bridgeport Partners to be completed in early The District will then incorporate its capital improvement planning and corresponding long range planning to help guide the District over next 5 years.

4 The Oregon Park District will not complete the Truth in Taxation proceedings for the 2013 Tax Levy. Illinois Law requires local municipalities to publish a Truth in Taxation notice, as well as hold a public hearing, if the municipality considers levying property taxes greater than 5% of the preceding tax year s extension. The District estimates the 2013 tax year extension to be only 2.33% more than the preceding year s extension. The calculation to determine the Truth in Taxation rate does not include the Debt Service Levy (General Obligation Bonds). The Districts overall tax receipts will increase by approximately 3.37% over the 2012 tax year. While the District will collect more tax revenue than the preceding year, the taxes paid by individual homeowners will not increase at that rate. The Park District estimates that the typical Oregon Homeowner will actually see a tax decrease of 1.34%. See section 3 for more information on the tax effect of homeowners.

6 2013 Tax Effect on Homeowner The Oregon Park District annually files its tax levy ordinance by the last Tuesday in December. The Ogle County Clerk then processes the District s tax rate along with all other taxing bodies within the homeowner s district. The Assessor s office totals the Equalized Assessed Value (EAV) for each District. The County Clerk then calculates the tax rates and passes the billing along to the Treasurer s Office. Budget/Levy Cycle Ogle County Oregon Fire Dist Community College School District Library District Park District Road District Township District City of Oregon This is a typical Oregon Park District homeowner s tax bill for the 2011 tax year. Each taxing districts rate will be broken down for the homeowner. The total rate multiplied by homeowners EAV will determine their annual real estate taxes due. The assessor s office determines an individual property EAV. A property s EAV is approximately 1/3 of its respective fair market value. EAV X Total Tax Rate = Property Tax Due TOTAL RATE $111,326 = Median Oregon Home price in Districts 2007 Master Plan $37,109 = Taxation EAV of approximately 1/3 Fair Market Value $6,000 = Less Homestead Exemption (maximum) $31,109 = TAXABLE EAV Typical Homeowners Tax Liability to Park District Typical Oregon Household Tax Year Home EAV Rate Taxes Due , $ , $ , $ * 30, $ * 29, $ * 27, $ * 26, $ Change $1.52 * Negative Multiplier > 2010 =.9760 / 2011 =.9678 / 2012 =.9421 / 2013 =.9660 (County Assessment Office)

7 The 2013 proposed tax levy calculation estimates a decrease in the typical Oregon homeowner taxes payable to the Oregon Park District. A tax decrease of $1.52 is expected for an owner of a median home (fair market value of $111,326 in 2007). The District makes every effort to provide the best services possible, with the least amount of impact to the local taxpayers. While the District makes every attempt to balance its tax rate on an annual basis, slight fluctuations will occur. While the Park Districts overall tax rate is estimated to increase by (per $100 of Equalized Assessed Value), the typical Oregon homeowner is expected to realize a reduction in taxes payable to the Park District.

8 The Oregon Park District s tax rate represents only 4.57% of the typical Oregon homeowner s real estate tax liability for 2012 tax year.

As seen below, the District s tax rate has remained stable, while many District s has been forced to increase their rates. The Park District s tax representation has decreased from 5.2% of the total tax rate to 4.57% over the last four tax years Ogle County Oregon Township Oregon Fire District City of Oregon Oregon Library District Oregon School District # Community College District # Oregon Park District TOTAL TAX RATE Tax Rate Per $100 of Equalized Assessed Valuation Visit for more information!
