NOTE: To determine the estimated annual tax impact based on a home value of $150,000, multiply the amount in the appropriate “STAR” column by 1.5. For an assessed home value of $200,000, multiply the amount by 2, and so on.
Other Tax Facts
It is worth noting that Cairo-Durham CSD’s tax levy per pupil is the lowest of Greene County’s six public school districts (approx. $10,900). This project will not significantly change these stats or the District’s position within the county.
