District to Vote on Property Tax Hike

The Memphis ISD board is scheduled to vote on a 2026 tax rate that explicitly exceeds the “No-New-Revenue” rate. This action is a direct vote to increase the total amount of property taxes collected from homeowners and businesses, raising the financial burden on the community.

Response

Attend the Public Hearing at 5:50 PM to speak. Contact the Memphis ISD board (see official agenda for contact details): ‘Vote NO on Item 5. Adopt the No-New-Revenue rate and do not increase the tax burden on Memphis families.’
