That brings it back almost exactly to the 2018 rate (within a couple cents) - basically they negated the 2019 reduction. If I were in command I'd look around and figure some extra reserve $ would be nice to have right about now.
Tax rate doesn't mean too much in and of itself, however if they wildly raised your assessment then you have a real problem (that just got 11.5% worse)
