Rate will Drop by at Least 9.9%

County commissioners voted unanimously to reduce property taxes in SW Florida by at least 9.9%  They voted on only 4 of Lee County’s 6 tax rates, with another two to follow soon.  Rates could fall even lower if that happens. 

Right now the typical homeowner with a home worth $200,000 would save $79, even more if further cuts are approved. 

Don’t count on your tax bill going down though as Lee County only makes up about 1/3 of all the taxes you pay in your property tax bill.  Also, your assessed rate may have increased, offsetting any savings you might see from the reduced millage tax rates set by the County.
