2023-24 P-2 J-29 Property Tax Summary

Dear School Business Professionals,
The 2023-24 J-29 P-2 Property Tax Summary<sbas.sbceo.org/Escape/202324%20J29%20P2SummarybyColumnDistrict.pdf> is now posted on our website on the Adopted Budget<sbasweb.sbceo.org/reporting/adopted-budget> page.
Important notes about this Property Tax Report
The items below represent a summary of notable changes from the prior reporting period, P-1 to P-2.
* Column A-2: Unsecured aircraft allocation decreased in estimate from P-1. * Column A-8: Based on YTD Supplemental levy, it’s anticipated to be lower than the estimate in P-1. Property Transfers trend indicates a continual decrease from prior year which is an indicator of supplemental levy and collections. * Column A-9: ERAF allocation projected to be lower than in P-1 due to lower than anticipated supplemental collections.
Note: Prior Year collections should be taken into consideration when developing your budget since some are one-time sources and should not be carried forward as ongoing revenues in future years.
The above factors are important to consider when planning for your district’s 2023-24 Estimated Actuals and 2024-25 Adopted Budget and Multi-Year Projections. Please review how these changes may affect your individual district.
If you have any questions regarding the 2023-24 P-2 Property Tax Report, please contact Alejandro Baeza at 805-964-4710 x5372 or abaeza@sbceo.org<mailto:abaeza@sbceo.org>.
