Background
Per Florida Statute Section 200.065, the City Commission shall adopt a tentative millage rate prior to the adoption of a tentative budget and shall otherwise comply with the controlling provisions of the law.
The Volusia County Property Appraiser has certified the gross taxable value of property
for operating purposes within the City as $5,920,885,741 and certified a rolled-back rate
of $6.4948 per $1,000 of taxable value for the City of Deltona. The City Commission deems it necessary to levy and does hereby levy a tentative tax of $6.4948 mills upon all real and personal property within the City for operational purposes. The operating levy of $6.4948 per $1,000 represents a 0.00% increase from the rolled-back rate of $6.4948 per $1,000 of taxable value. The tentative operating millage for Fiscal Year 2026-2027 would provide a tentative budget of $36,532,220 at 95% in ad valorem proceeds.
