How will this impact my taxes?
If the Robinson ISD bond election passes, the district projects an estimated tax rate impact of $0.1447 (14.47 cents). The cost for the average home in Robinson ISD with a market value of $334,836 (with a $140,000 homestead exemption) is approximately $23.49 per month.
Under Texas law, the amount of school taxes paid on a residence homestead by a person age 65 or older or disabled cannot increase above the amount paid in the first year the exemption is received - regardless of whether the bond passes or fails. Homeowners must apply to receive this exemption.
