9. Property Tax Cap Total Levy to Support Proposed Budget Tax Levy Limit + Coming School Year Exemptions = Maximum Allowable Tax Levy

10. Tax Levy Limit Prior Year Tax Levy X Tax Base Growth Factor + PILOTs (Prior Year) - Prior Year Exemptions (Not ERS & TRS) = Adjusted Prior Year Tax Levy X Allowable Levy Growth Factor (lesser of 2% or CPI) - PILOTs (receivable in coming year) + Allowable Carryover = TAX LEVY LIMIT

11. Coming School Year Exemptions Pension Costs: Increase in Employer Contribution Rates by More Than 2% over Prior Year Exemption = % over 2% X Salary Base = Exempt Amount (i.e. 2.6% increase,.6% excludable portion).006 X $20,000,000 = $120,000 (Exempt Amount) You would perform this calculation for both TRS and ERS

12. Property Tax Cap Summary Taxpayers are still voting on the spending plan (appropriations) Taxpayers will vote on the TAX LEVY LIMIT prior to EXEMPTIONS Property Tax Cap is in effect through the 2016-2017 Fiscal Year
