The average ACC District homeowner’s tax bill is expected to increase by less than a dollar in the coming year.

The Board of Trustees’ proposed property tax rate for 2013 is $0.0949 (about 9 and a half cents), a slight decrease from the 2012 rate. The small increase to the average residential tax bill is due to higher home values.

The ACC District thanks you for your support, which allows us to serve more than 43,000 students and provide the lowest-cost college education in the area. For more information on ACC’s programs and services, visit austincc.edu.
