3 The tax generated by the Oregon Park District is a calculation of the property tax levy, the property tax rate, and the equalized assessed value (EAV). EAV multiplied by Tax Rate = Property Tax Revenue I. The EAV of the Oregon Park District changes on an annual basis. The EAV is determined by the Ogle County Assessment Office for all the taxable property within the Oregon Park District boundaries. II. The Oregon Park District determines a property tax levy for each calendar tax year. The estimated levy compared to the EAV determines the rate at which the property owner within the Oregon Park District will be taxed. III. The desired levy of the Oregon Park District multiplied by the current EAV determines the Property Tax Revenue that will be received from the collection of taxes within the Oregon Park District boundaries. The primary source of the District's tax base is the Exelon Generation Station. The 2011 tax year represented the final year of the previous real property tax assessment agreement. The OCIA (Ogle County Intergovernmental Association), which includes the District, is currently meeting to discuss the possibility of a future agreement with Exelon. The budget and levy assumptions for the 2012 tax year will be directly impacted by future negotiations, the board of review, PTAB, and possible court decisions. While the expected Equalized Assessed Value of the District is approximately 631 Million (early estimation established by the Assessment Office), the District will levy its Corporate and Recreation funds at a higher rate to capture any additional real estate revenue in the event that the EAV increases between the filing of the annual tax levy and final established EAV. The District s primary capital project will be a Renovation to the Nash Recreation Center. The Oregon Park District was awarded a 1.5 Million Dollar Park and Recreational Facility Construction Grant (PARC Grant). The Park District was one of 22 recipients out of 265 grant seekers. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources will administer the 50 Million Dollar grant program. The Park District is working with the Farnsworth Group to develop the renovation plans for the Nash Recreation Center. The improvement will help make Nash a sustainable recreation center for the future and include many green energy improvements. Major improvements include the implementation of a new roofing system, roof top solar

4 installation, upgrades to the pool area and building HVAC systems. Construction will begin in late spring of 2013! The Oregon Park District will complete the Truth in Taxation proceedings for the 2012 Tax Levy. Illinois Law requires local municipalities to publish a Truth in Taxation notice, as well as hold a public hearing, if the municipality considers levying property taxes greater than 5% of the preceding tax year s extension. The District estimates the 2012 tax year extension to be 9.64% more than the preceding year s extension. The calculation to determine the Truth in Taxation rate does not include the Debt Service Levy (General Obligation Bonds). The Districts overall tax receipts will increase by approximately 7.23%. While the District will collect more tax revenue than the preceding year, the taxes paid by individual homeowners will not increase at that rate. The Park District estimates that the typical Oregon Homeowner will actually see a tax decrease of 4.3%. See section 3 for more information on the tax effect of homeowners.

6 The Oregon Park District annually files its tax levy ordinance by the last Tuesday in December. The Ogle County Clerk then processes the District s tax rate along with all other taxing bodies within the homeowner s district. The Assessor s office totals the Equalized Assessed Value (EAV) for each District. The County Clerk then calculates the tax rates and passes the billing along to the Treasurer s Office. Budget/Levy Cycle Ogle County Oregon Fire Dist Community College School District Library District Park District Road District Township District City of Oregon This is a typical Oregon Park District homeowner s tax bill for the 2011 tax year. Each taxing districts rate will be broken down for the homeowner. The total rate multiplied by homeowners EAV will determine their annual real estate taxes due. The assessor s office determines an individual property EAV. A property s EAV is approximately 1/3 of its respective fair market value. TOTAL RATE EAV X Total Tax Rate = Property Tax Due $111,326 = Median Oregon Home price in Districts 2007 Master Plan $37,109 = Taxation EAV of approximately 1/3 Fair Market Value $6,000 = Less Homestead Exemption (maximum) $31,109 = TAXABLE EAV Typical Homeowners Tax Liability to Park District Typical Oregon Household Tax Year Home EAV Rate Taxes Due , $ , $ , $ * 30, $ * 29, $ * 27, $ Change $5.13 * Negative Multiplier > 2010 =.9760 / 2011 =.9678 / 2012 =.9421 (County Assessment Office)

7 The 2012 proposed tax levy calculation estimates a decrease in the typical Oregon homeowner taxes payable to the Oregon Park District. A tax decrease of $5.13 is expected for an owner of a median home (fair market value of $111,326). The District makes every effort to provide the best services possible, with the least amount of impact to the local taxpayers. While the District makes every attempt to balance its tax rate on an annual basis, slight fluctuations will occur. While the Park Districts overall tax rate is estimated to increase by (per $100 of Equalized Assessed Value), the typical Oregon homeowner is expected to realize a reduction in taxes payable to the Park District. Distribution of a typical Oregon Homeowners Tax Liability for the 2011 tax year 4.58% 4.63% 2.92% 2% 12.20% 8.69% 3.28% 5.33% Ogle County Oregon Fire Dist Community College School District Library District Park District Road District 56.45% Township District City of Oregon 5% Park District All Other Tax Bodies 95%

As seen below, the District s tax rate has remained stable, while many District s has been forced to increase their rates. The Park District s tax representation has decreased from 5.2% of the total tax rate to 4.6% over the last three tax years Ogle County Oregon Township Oregon Fire District City of Oregon Oregon Library District Oregon School District # Community College District # Oregon Park District TOTAL TAX RATE Tax Rate Per $100 of Equalized Assessed Valuation Visit for more information!
