The tax rate proposed in the budget submitted to the City Council is 0.575 cents per $100 valuation. This is the same total tax rate that was approved last year.

Council Meeting: August 11, 2008 Item No. _j— City of Anna City Council Agenda Staff Report Staff Contact: Clark McCoy Account Code #: NA Budgeted Amount: $ NA Exhibits: 0 Yes ❑ No AGENDA SUBJECT: Discussion of proposed ordinance repealing Ordinance 395- 2008, which the Council recently adopted to order a special election to fill City Council Place 6 vacancy. SUMMARY: It is anticipated that the City Council will consider appointing a person to fill the City Council Place 6 vacancy and will also consider an ordinance ordering a special election to fill said vacancy and/or propose Charter amendments. Regardless of how the Council chooses to fill the Place 6 vacancy, it is desirable to repeal Ordinance 395-2008. If the Council appoints someone to fill Place 6, then Ordinance 395-2008 must first be repealed. If the Council chooses to fill Place 6 by Special Election, that option is available in one of two alternative ordinances that are referenced in later agenda items. One of those Ordinances orders a special election to fill Place 6 and for the voters to consider the Charter amendments previously discussed by the Council. The alternative ordinance orders a special election for the voters to consider the Charter amendments previously discussed by the Council, but does not order a special election to fill Place 6. Again, regardless of how the Council decides to fill Place 6, Ordinance 395-2008 should be repealed to establish a clear public record of the Council's special -election order. RECOMMENDED: This ordinance is recommended for adoption by the City Council to address the issues described above.
