You are correct but some explanation is called for.
According to my TRIM notice, the Sumter County mileage rate for the County Taxes increased by 25.5%. Your assessed property value might also have gone up. Mine did by the CPI of 1.9% as per Save Our Homes. Therefore, my County Tax increased by 28.4%.
My School Tax increased by less than $10.
Therefore, my total ad-valorem taxes (County and School) increased by 13.2%. YMMV.
The non-ad valorem fees, Fire and Maintenance, did not change from last year.
At this point, I am assuming that the TRIM notice reflects what will actually come to pass.
