DATE: July 16, 2004
SUBJECT: City Council Meeting - July 22, 2004
ITEM: *12.C.1. Consider an ordinance granting a partial exemption from ad
valorem taxes for certain qualified historically significant
properties located within the city limits of Round Rock. (Second
Reading)
Department: Planning and Community Development
Staff Person: Jim Stendebach, Planning Director
Justification:
This program's benefit to Round Rock is the long term preservation of the City's historic
resources. On June 15, 2004, the Historic Preservation Commission recommended the
approval of partial tax exemptions for 53 properties. All but one application met the criteria
for preservation and maintenance according to Section 11.316(7) of the City of Round Rock
Zoning Ordinance. The City will forego $35,634.00 in municipal property tax revenue
(excluding the $504.00 for 121 E. Main Street shown in Exhibit "A") due to the partial tax
exemption program.
Funding•
Cost: N/A
Source of funds: N/A
Outside Resources: N/A
Background Information:
The partial tax exemption program was created in 1988. The program encourages owners of
historic properties to use money saved on taxes to provide regular maintenance and/or repair
to their structures. The overall benefit to Round Rock is the long-term preservation of the
City's historic resources. Under the program, property owners receive a 75% exemption on
city property taxes. The program does not exempt county or school district taxes.
Public Comment:
Public Notice and a public hearing were held in accordance with the City of Round Rock's
Zoning Ordinance. No members of the public spoke to this application at the Historic
Preservation Commission public hearing, held on June 15, 2004.
