Budget Information
The Fire District uses
budget dates starting January 1 through December 31. The Fire Chief
is designated by Missouri statute to be the budget officer. The
budget process is started in October and is presented for approval
to the Fire Board in November. A hearing is held in late August that
sets the rate of taxation for the Fire District's general operations
fund and the firemen's pension fund for the next year. How that levy
rate is determined is provided below. This information is required
to be published prior to the special hearing so that the general
public can comment prior to ordinance adoption by the fire board.
Missouri statues limit the maximum rate a fire district can levy.
The taxable rate is based off of each property's assessed valuation.
The Jackson County Clerk's Office determines each city's aggregate
assessed valuation and reported new construction for all political
subdivisions from the previous year.
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
In accordance with Missouri State Statue
67.110, notice is herby given that a public hearing will be held at 9:00
a.m., August 25th, 2009, at the Raytown Fire Protection District
Conference Room at 6020 Raytown Trafficway, Raytown, Missouri, at which
time citizens may be heard on the property tax rates proposed to be set
by the Raytown Fire Protection District, a political subdivision. The
tax rates shall be set to produce the revenues which the budget for the
fiscal year beginning January 1, 2010, shows to be required from the
property tax. Each tax rate is determined by dividing the amount of
revenue required by the current assessed valuation. The result is
multiplied by 100 so the tax rate will be expressed in cents per $100
valuation.

To determine how much
revenue is required, a series of calculations are required from the
State Auditor's office for each fund that is requested by the
jurisdiction. The results are submitted back to the county clerk and
then forwarded to the State Auditor's office for final approval. The
county's collection department then begins to collect the taxes
after the first of each year and forward revenues to our accounts by
wire transfer as they are received.
The following is the
proposed budget for BY2010. This is in summary form. The full
version of this budget can be viewed at the headquarters station
during normal business hours.

estimated on the conservative side. The unpredictability of those
taxpayers paying on previous years assessments are unknown.

the sales tax revenue payments to the State of Missouri Department
of Revenue.
