In accordance with Florida Statutes 200.065(2)b, the Board of County Commissioners shall notify the Property Appraiser’s Office (PAO) of the maximum millage rates for all taxing authorities under its purview within 35 days of certification of the preliminary tax roll by PAO on July 1. These millage rates may not be increased, but may be decreased, after notification and prior to the adoption of the final millage rates and budgets at a public hearing on September 25.

At this Budget Information Session, the Board may also provide feedback on the FY19 Proposed Budget delivered on July 17, 2018, and direct changes to this budget. Any changes would be incorporated into the FY19 Tentative Budget to be posted to the County’s Citizen Budget website (http://www.pinellascounty.org/budget) on September 11 and considered along with tentative millage rates at a public hearing on September 13. Changes may also be directed prior to adoption of the final millage rates and budgets at a public hearing on September 25.
