McAllen commissioners approve 2025 tax roll; staff presents taxable-value recap
The McAllen City Commission adopted the 2025 tax roll by resolution after a staff presentation summarizing certified values and exemptions.

Becky, a city staff member, presented the certified totals and a recap of market values, land and improvements, exemptions, and the net taxable value. She reported, "the net taxable value is $16,294,166,590," and said the total tax levy before freeze figures were presented in the packet. Staff provided two figures in the presentation: a total tax levy described during the presentation as "$73,000,001.58" (reading from a line in the packet) and an amount subsequently referenced as "$70,099,778.47" as the total used to send statements. The staff presentation did not reconcile those figures on the record at the meeting.

Commissioners approved the tax roll by resolution on a voice vote. During related discussion, a commissioner asked for comparative bar-graph data to show collections versus prior years; staff agreed to add year-over-year comparisons to future reports and noted that collections this fiscal year had been paused for about 30 days to accommodate residents after a governor-declared disaster in March/April, which affected collection totals.

The resolution authorizes staff to finalize and distribute tax statements consistent with the approved roll. No vote-by-name tally was recorded in the meeting transcript.
