FORT BEND COUNTY On July 12 at Fort Bend County Commissioners Court, o cials proposed that the county shoulder the $26.8 million for the 195,000-square-foot multiuse EpiCenter under construction in Rosenberg. The county’s temporary funding would come with the expected reimbursement by its fourth year of operation, County Auditor Ed Sturdivant said. Per the EpiCenter resolution, the revenue generated by the operation of the center—such as event ticket proceeds, rental and license fees, merchandising proceeds, food and beverage revenue, sponsorships and advertising sales, and equipment rental fees—would provide these reimbursements and permanent funding for continued use. Precinct 1 Commissioner Vincent Morales, who oversees the Katy area, cited the long-term bene ts of the EpiCenter, referencing conservative revenue estimates for the rst three years of its operation—with coupled other revenue streams that were not factored into the 2017 projections.

“If you look at what was presented through the study and the consultant [for this project], there was $100 million in indirect bene t to the county,” he said. “With naming rights and parcels, there could be another $100 million. This will bene t the county long term.” Still, County Judge KP George requested Sturdivant pre- pare an updated nancial impact study due to the e ects of in ation, which will be presented at an upcoming meeting.

Out of Time Fort Bend ISD o cials said the district needs to course correct its nances to avoid a projected $75.7 million shortfall by the 2024-25 school year. Before the district is a voter-approval tax rati cation election, or VATRE, designed to increase tax revenue to the district and a bond designed to address facility needs. Here is what needs to happen before either comes before voters.

Voter-approval tax rati cation elections and bonds both require voter approval, though each performs di erent functions.
Fort Bend ISD is considering a tax rate election to address its nancial woes while evaluating the need for a bond for the district’s capital needs. The district is contemplating up to an $0.11 vot- er-approval tax rati cation election, or VATRE, alongside a proposed more than $1.1 billion bond in the upcoming Nov. 8 election, though both must be called by the board of trustees during its Aug. 22 meeting, according to district documents.

VATRE
A school district’s property tax rate is made up of a maintenance and operations tax rate and an interest and sinking tax rate . Should a district look to increase its recurring revenue through raising the maintenance and operations rate above the maximum amount allowed by state statute, then the district is required to call a voter-approval tax rati cation election. For Fort Bend ISD, a tax rate that exceeds $1.1901 triggers a VATRE .

20 meeting. Included in that budget is a 2%-3% salary increase for teachers and other sta and a $47 million budget de cit that was o set using the district’s existing reserve and $27 million in one-time federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief funds. “A lot of factors impact our budget,” FBISD Deputy Superintendent Steve Bassett said during the meeting. “Property value growth, in ation, lower student growth. We adopted a budget that had a $47 million de cit if you’re not counting using ESSER funds.” One of the biggest factors contributing to the de cit is the FY 2021-22 budget, which had to be o set with $19 million in fund balance and ESSER funds. In that budget cycle, teachers received a 6% pay bump on average, while nonteaching sta received a 4% bump. Those compensation
according to the district’s July 25 nance report. That new rate, $1.2646 per $100 property valua- tion, would bring in an additional $62.6 million in revenue annually to the district. For residents with a property with an average taxable value of $291,266, the new rate would raise their annual tax bill by $337, according to the nancial report. “That tax rate is actually slightly less than what our tax rate was in 2020,” FBISD Finance Director Bryan Guinn said during the meeting. “It is import- ant to point out that although our residents would pay more because of property value growth, the tax rate is still relatively lower than what it was previously.” Meanwhile, a bond, if called by the FBISD board of trustees, may target $505 million in major building projects, such as rebuilds of Clements High School, Briargate Elementary School and Mission
