2026 Tax Rate Notices
Notice About 2026 Tax Rates
Property tax rates in EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10. This notice concerns the 2026 property tax rates for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10. This notice provides information about two tax rates used in adopting the current tax year's tax rate. The no-new-revenue tax rate would impose the same amount of taxes as last year if you compare properties taxed in both years. In most cases, the voter-approval tax rate is the highest tax rate a taxing unit can adopt without holding an election. In each case, these rates are calculated by dividing the total amount of taxes by the current taxable value with adjustments as required by state law. The rates are given per $100 of property value.
| This year's no-new-revenue tax rate | $0.093207/$100 |
|---|---|
| This year's voter-approval tax rate | $0.097572/$100 |

Notice of Public Hearing
on Tax Increase
A tax rate of $0.100000 per $100 valuation has been proposed by the governing body of EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10.
- Proposed tax rate
- $0.100000 per $100
- No-new-revenue tax rate
- $0.093207 per $100
- Voter-approval tax rate
- $0.097572 per $100
- De minimis rate
- $0.107768 per $100
The no-new-revenue tax rate is the tax rate for the 2026 tax year that will raise the same amount of property tax revenue for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 from the same properties in both the 2025 tax year and the 2026 tax year.
The voter-approval rate is the highest tax rate that EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate, unless the de minimis rate for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 exceeds the voter-approval rate for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10.
The de minimis rate is the rate equal to the sum of the no-new-revenue maintenance and operations rate for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10, the rate that will raise $500,000, and the current debt rate for EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10.
The proposed tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 is proposing to increase property taxes for the 2026 tax year.
A public hearing on the proposed tax rate will be held at 9100 South Loop 1604 East, San Antonio, Texas 78223 on August 20th, 2026, at 7:00 p.m.
A public meeting on the approval and adoption of the 2026 tax rate will be held at 9100 South Loop 1604 East, San Antonio, Texas 78223 on August 20th, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. or following the conclusion of the public hearing.
The proposed tax rate is greater than the voter-approval tax rate but not greater than the de minimis rate and does not exceed the rate that allows voters to petition for an election under Section 26.075, Tax Code. If EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 adopts the proposed tax rate, EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 is not required to hold an election so that voters may accept or reject the proposed tax rate and the qualified voters of EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 may not petition EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT #10 to require an election to be held to determine whether to reduce the proposed tax rate.
Your taxes owed under any of the rates mentioned above can be calculated as follows:
Property tax amount = (tax rate) × (taxable value of your property) / 100
FOR the proposal:
- Thomas Hicks
- Marie Yates
- Dan Lazar
AGAINST the proposal:
- None
PRESENT and not voting:
- None
ABSENT:
