1) 5 random samples of homes were taken from each city. Efforts were made to find varying city locations and home values. |
| |
The average of the 5 random samples was used to determine AV rate and special assessment rate. Weighted Average |
|
| |
AV rates were calculated by looking at all the Tax Rate Areas in a City and calculating the total weighted average of them. |
|
| |
2) Ad Valorem or According to Value is a method of taxation using the value of the thing taxed to determine the amount of tax. |
| |
In Alameda County it consists of 1% plus any special taxes used to pay for things such as school bonds, city debt issuances, special |
| |
districts support (e.g., water districts, transportation districts, park districts, flood control districts), etc. |
|
|
| |
Union City only receives a share of the 1% Countywide tax and has no control over the other components of the AV rate. |
