Set forth below are the assessed taxable values of the properties subject to taxes for the current year and immediately preceding 4 calendar years, the total dollar amount of ad valorem taxes proposed to be levied for the current year and levied in the immediately preceding 4 calendar years, as well as the percentage and total dollar increases or decreases with respect to the immediately preceding calendar year.

Roundabouts
Roundabouts are designed to improve traffic safety and keep vehicles moving more efficiently than traditional signalized intersections. By reducing stop-and-go traffic and lowering vehicle speeds, roundabouts help decrease the number and severity of crashes while improving traffic flow.
