The Brentwood Board of Commissioners voted unanimously on first reading to set the FY2027 property tax rate at $0.19 per $100 of assessed valuation.
City Manager Jason Gage introduced the ordinance, saying the rate is unchanged from last year: "This recommends and includes the 19 cents per $100 of assessed valuation property tax, the same as what it was, last year." He framed the rate as relatively low compared with neighboring cities and noted Brentwood’s high property values as a factor.
Commissioners asked whether state law or other restrictions limit how property‑tax revenue may be used. The city attorney responded that she did not believe there were statutory restrictions but deferred to a more detailed legal review as needed. The commission then voted to approve the ordinance on first reading; the vote was recorded as unanimous.
The ordinance will proceed through the city’s required procedural steps following first reading.
