St. Louis Hills SBD Voting
August 8, 2023
Working to ensure a safe, beautiful, and vibrant neighborhood.
- Objective is to raise $500,000/annually, used solely for purposes outlined in the budget within the boundaries of the district during its proposed 7 year existence
- Offers immediate, direct impact to neighborhood that can be easily measured and tracked thru this website, making the SBD the most transparent local taxing authority
- 42% of the SBD budget allocated to the neighborhood security initiative (defined by the District boundaries)
- Supplements gaps in city services, not “paying for same things twice”
- Year 1 tax rate at .35, with maximum SBD tax exposure for any parcel to be capped at $250/annually per Board resolution (Lowest SBD tax rate in City of St. Louis!)
- Unspent funds from fiscal year remain under SBD control and would result in possibility of lower future SBD tax rate
- Ensures neighborhood events that bond our community have access to supplemental financial resources
