The City of Donna issued a public notice outlining the property tax rates for fiscal year 2021 and showing how the city will meet its debt‑service obligations. It lists two rates – a "no‑new‑revenue" rate that keeps taxes the same as the prior year ($0.719619 per $100 of assessed value) and a voter‑approval rate (the highest rate a taxing unit can set without an election, $0.778541 per $100). The notice also reports the city’s unencumbered Debt Service Fund balance ($2,219,322), the total debt service required for 2021 ($4,068,837), how much of that will be paid from property taxes ($1,388,647), and other financing sources ($2,680,190). The figures were certified by the City Tax Assessor/Collector on July 28, 2021.
