Property Tax Revenue
Taxable Property Values
*Projected
25
Taxes:
Taxes are levied on January 1 of each year and are considered past due on February 1 of the
following year. The Williamson Central Appraisal District determines the value for each property in the
city. Property tax roles are certified in July and the tax rate is adopted in September, along with the
budget. The City’s tax collector, currently the Williamson County Tax Collector, sends statements in
October to each taxpayer. The City’s tax collection rate for 2006/07 is 98.52%.
Taxable Valuations:
Over the past 5 years, new construction permits have ranged from 750 to 1,500. This growth
trend is expected to continue into 2008, based on information from builders, planned subdivisions
within the city and anticipated commercial development.
Values on existing property increased 3.2% over last year. The average home value is $183,970,
which is an increase of 3% over the prior year. Overall, total assessed valuation was 14.8%
greater than prior year.
2007/08 new values include $336 million in new construction and annexed property, of which $26
million is new commercial property.
Adopted Property Tax Rate for 2007/08 is $0.35659/$100 valuation:
Represents a 4.2% increase over the adjusted effective rate of $0.34217/$100 valuation, which
includes a $0.032 adjustment for sales tax dedicated to property tax relief.
The City adopted an 1/8 cent sales tax rate for property tax relief in May 2005, with the primary
intent to offset debt service related to the November 2004 voter approved general obligation
bonds. All authorized 2004 bonds have been issued with a total tax impact of $0.0467.
Breakdown: 07/08 06/07
M & O - Maintenance and Operations (General Fund) $0.20322 $0.21979
I & S - Debt Service (payment on existing debt) $0.15337 $0.14749
*Future Projections:
Assumptions for the forecasts of future years are based upon historical trends, expected build out of
planned subdivisions, and utility tap requests. Assumptions include:
Continued new and annexed property growth of $150 million in 2008/09, then $100 million in the
out years as new retail properties are added to the tax role, with a 3% annual increase in existing
valuations.
No increases in M & O; projected at effective rate.
Reflects impact of 1/8% sales tax for property tax relief.
Includes proposed debt increases for bond issues, including roads, parks and facilities.

Sales Tax Revenue – 1% General Operating
The City receives 2% of the 8.25% sales and use taxes that are remitted by retailers within the City limits:
1.000% is used for general operating purposes
0.500% is used for transportation improvements through the Georgetown Transportation Enhancement Corporation
(GTEC), the City’s 4B Economic Development Corporation, authorized in May 2001
0.125% is for Georgetown Economic Development Corporation (GEDCO), the City’s 4A Economic Development
Corporation, approved in May 2005
0.125% is for property tax relief, approved in May 2005
0.250% is used for street maintenance; sunset revision approved November 2006, expires in March 2011
2.000% City portion
6.250% is collected and retained by the State of Texas
8.250% Total sales tax rate
The City’s sales tax base is diverse, with revenues being generated by national retailers, building materials and utilities,
etc. The heavy residential growth over the past few years has also created a demand for more restaurants and other
retailers that have also expanded the City’s tax base. Sales tax has increased over the past few years due to an increase
in new retail developments within the City, such as Walgreens, a second HEB grocery, Home Depot and Walmart
Supercenter. Wolf Ranch Shopping Center, a 750,000 sq ft Simon development, includes Target, Old Navy, Kohl’s,
Michaels, and Best Buy, among others opened in June 2005.
Future projections are based on the following assumptions:
2007/08 includes a 5% increase in the overall sales tax base projections from prior year. Growth in baseline
sales tax (without Wolf Ranch) has averaged about 10% due to increased building material sales. A 5%
increase in baseline sales tax is projected in 2007/08 due to the volatility of the housing market and local
economic conditions.
The City’s development agreement with Simon for Wolf Ranch includes a sales tax rebate of 53% of General
operating sales tax revenue as an economic development incentive.

Water Services Revenue - Wastewater
Utility Revenues:
The revenue shown include tap or hookup fees. Developer contributions, such as capital recovery or
impact fees and interest are presented elsewhere.
Generally, utility revenue projections are based on five-year forecasting models for each utility. The City
prepares a financial model of each utility, forecasting revenues, expected infrastructure needs and other
expected expenses. The models are prepared based upon assumptions regarding customer growth, the
City’s five and ten year capital improvements plans, forecasted increases in costs, including personnel,
and historical data. The models serve as a planning tool to forecast the ability to pay cash for
infrastructure, anticipate debt needs for the upcoming five to ten year period, as well as, predict rate
increases for customers.
Electric and Water Revenues:
Calculated on a four-year rolling average of per capita consumption in order to hedge against
variations in weather conditions.
Growth estimates are based upon building permits, expected build out of subdivisions and other
planning and development activity.
Assumes a 4.5% customer growth for Electric through the next five, as the City’s southern electric
service area is developed.
Assumes a 5% customer growth for Water for the next five years.
Rising purchased power costs also attribute to increased electric revenue, as these costs are
passed on to the customer through a fuel adjustment in the rate.
The City continues to be proactive in planning for regional water needs. The City has signed additional
agreements with Brazos River Authority to ensure future water needs are met. Major treatment and
system expansions will be made as growth occurs and are included in the 5-year capital improvement
schedule.
Wastewater Revenues:
Assumes a 5% customer growth over the next five years. (historical average is 5-6%)
City implemented a flat rate sewer rate structure in April 2007, thus eliminating “winter averaging”
within the rate.
Flat rates allocate cost equitability between all system users, and thus eliminates any cross-class
subsidies.

Impact Fees:
Water $433 $400 $544 $867 $794 $1,212 $1,364 $1,408 $1,494 $1,557
Wastewater $294 $321 $427 $599 $684 $898 $1,100 $1,153 $1,208 $1,259
Total (thousands) $727 $722 $970 $1,466 $1,478 $2,110 $2,464 $2,561 $2,702 $2,816
Service Improvement Fees:
These fees are collected from Del Webb and Escalera Ranch on a per unit basis to offset costs of
infrastructure improvements to serve the developments. The fees, similar to impact fees, are collected for
water and wastewater improvements as part of these development agreements. The large increase in
revenue in 2005/06 is due to a one-time payment from Del Webb to reimburse the City for stranded costs
associated with Sun City. Additionally, the large increase (over normal growth) in 2006/07 is due to a
one-time payment from ABG to reimburse the City for stranded costs associated with the Escalera water
line.
Impact Fees:
In 1996, the City adopted water and wastewater impact fees under Chapter 395 of the Texas Local
Government Code. These revenues are used as partial funding for qualifying water and wastewater
infrastructure projects for increased system capacity. The fees were updated in 2003 and again in 2005,
through a study prepared by an Impact Fee Advisory Committee, to reflect changes in the City’s five and
ten year Capital Improvements Plans, the Future Land Use Plan, and updated construction costs. The fee
is $5,204 per unit for water and wastewater. These fees will be reviewed again in 2008.
*Projected
31
Other Enterprise Fund Revenues
Sanitation Revenue:
Sanitation revenue includes fees collected for curbside garbage pick-up, including recycling and
special pick-ups. In 2007, the Sanitation rates were increased to reflect increases in costs passed to
the City by the City’s waste collection contractor. Growth in the City’s customer base continues to be
steady, mirroring the City’s overall growth rate. The City contracts with Texas Disposal Systems for
garbage service.
Airport Revenue:
Airport revenue consists primarily of fuel sales, T-hangar rentals and tie-down fees. A 63-space T-
hangar was completed in January 2000, to accommodate demand for hangar rental space, therefore
increasing revenue. Fuel sales have also increased significantly, increasing revenue to the fund.
Stormwater Drainage Revenue:
Revenue for stormwater drainage is collected on a per unit basis to pay for maintenance of drainage,
detention and filtration infrastructure and to pay for the debt service on bonds issued for major capital
drainage improvements. The rate of $4.25 per unit also provides $300,000 annually for capital
maintenance to correct drainage problems in the City.

Other Miscellaneous Revenues
Interest Income:
The Federal Reserve raised interest rates over the past year, thus increasing projected interest revenue.
Projections are based on anticipated cash balances from contingency reserves, bond proceeds invested
through the life of construction projects and fund balances, as well as, continued existing market conditions.
Grant Revenue:
The City receives grants for a variety of purposes. Council approves all grant applications. The City budgets
for grants that have been approved and awarded by the granting agency.
Miscellaneous Revenue:
Revenues not falling into another category are classified as miscellaneous revenue. This source of funding is
expected to rise due to fee increases, including building permits, fines, parks fees, recreation charges and
other user fees, as well as, revenue for services from the Williamson County Emergency Service District (ESD)
#8 which began in 2006/07. Surplus property sales and donations are also included in this category.
Franchise Fee Revenue:
The City receives revenue from franchise fees. These fees are paid to the City’s General Fund by both City and
outside utilities for use of rights of way and public properties and are collected to offset the cost of street
maintenance. Increases in revenue are predicted to mirror the City’s growth rate.

Fiscal Year 2007/08
Revenues
Expenditures
Significant Issues/Comments:
Purchased power costs fluctuate with the
variances in the fuel surcharge implemented
by the Lower Colorado River Authority, the
City’s wholesale supplier. This surcharge is
passed along to the City’s customers as a
pass-through charge. Power costs have
increased significantly over prior years due to
the increased cost of natural gas.
The Electric and Water Services funds share
the maintenance of the City’s automated
meter reading system. In 2007/08, the
automated meter reading system will be
upgraded.
Capital projects are funded through operating
revenues and debt when necessary. In 2008,
$2.3 million of operating revenues and $6.7
million of bond proceeds fund the annual
capital projects plan.
Transfers out include the 8% return on
investment to the General Fund.
In 2007, two new substations were added to
serve east and south Georgetown.
42
Water Services Fund
Fund Description:
The Water Services Fund is used to account for the revenues from all operating and maintenance
activities for water, wastewater and irrigation utilities. Expenses also include debt payments, capital costs
and the transfers out to the General Fund for the City’s return on investment. Each utility service type is
tracked separately for rate design purposes to ensure rates are charged to fully recover operational costs.

Fiscal Year 2007/08
Revenues
Expenditures
Significant Issues/Comments:
Water supply is provided through agreements
with the Brazos River Authority (BRA). BRA
expenses will increase 15% over the prior
year for an increase in raw water cost, as well
as principal and interest payments and
operational cost for the Williamson County
Raw Water Line, which became operational
in 2003. Future raw water increases are
projected at 15% per year.
Service Improvement Fees (SIP) are
reserved to fund future payments on debt
issued for infrastructure related to
development, as well as, capital
improvements. The SIP fees in 2006/07 were
higher than usual due to a one-time payment
for Escalera SIP Fees.
Capital projects are funded through operating
revenues, service improvement fees, impact
fees and debt when necessary. In FY
2007/08, the City will review the current
impact fees.
In FY 2007/08, the City will update both the
Water and Wastewater System Master Plans.
The Masters Plans are used for system and
capital planning.
The City will begin year 6 of an 8 year
program to test all wastewater lines for inflow
and infiltrations as required by the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality
(TCEQ) for environmental safety of the
Edwards Aquifer. 98% of the city is located
over the Aquifer, therefore testing and repair
costs are a major component of the
wastewater capital improvement program.
The City budgets repairs for all problems
found in the next budget cycle.

Airport Fund
Fund Description:
The Airport fund is used to account for revenues and expenses related to the operation and maintenance of
the Georgetown Municipal Airport. Capital improvements for the Airport and debt payments on outstanding
debt for the Airport fund are also accounted for here.
Significant Issues/Comments:
The Airport was awarded a Federal Tower Grant for airport improvements from the Aviation Division of

Sanitation Fund
Fund Description:
The Sanitation Fund is used to account for revenues from all operating and maintenance activities of the
utility and the expenses of the departments, which support those activities. Sanitation includes operating
costs for the City’s payment to a private contractor for solid waste disposal services, as well as contracted
costs for the City’s collection station for bulky waste disposal.
Significant Issues/Comments:
During FY 2006/07, staff conducted community focus groups to ensure services provided in the City’s
sanitation contract reflect the needs and expectations of the community.
Sanitation rates were reviewed and updated in FY 2006/07. The rates became effective in the summer
of 2007. The rates were increased to reflect the increasing cost of service.
In 2007 the fence surrounding the City’s collection station will be replaced along with the gates and
signage leading into the collection station.
