GENERAL FUND REVENUES
EXPLANATION
Property Taxes
Property taxes reflected in the General Fund Budget are based on 5 mills.
The total City millage rate is 7. Five mills is General Government, 1 mill Police
Pension and 1 mill Fire Pension.
Because of its importance to the financing of City government, below is a
listing of the total millage rates, by year, for the City of Fayetteville.
Source: Official records of the City Clerk, City of Fayetteville:

As this chart indicates, the City of Fayetteville has the lowest property tax
rate since 1911.
Local tax effort is one of the main components in the computations of Revenue
Sharing entitlement funds. In short, low tax effort = low revenue sharing entitlement:
greater tax effort= larger revenue sharing. Franchise tax increases and adoption of
an occupation tax in 1976 has helped to recover most of the tax millage reduction but due
to lag -time for receiving credit, revenue sharing receipts will be down until approximately
1979.
Franchise Taxes - Expected to increase slightly due to an additional one percent increase
which is also applied to industrial customers and due to utility rate increases.
Southwestern Electric Power Company - Resolution No. 4-68, passed and approved
by the Board of Directors on January 29, 1968, amended the street rental charge (franchise
tax) agreement between SWEPCO and the City dated December 29, 1944, to provide for a 3
percent tax on the "Company's gross revenues derived from the sale of electric power and
energy to domestic and commercial customers within the City limits." A new agreement
was adopted in 1976 to increase the tax to 4 percent and apply the rate to industrial
customers. This agreement is for 10 years certain beginning July 1, 1976.
Southwestern Bell Telephone Company - Ordinance No. 1583 amended ordinances
numbered 1167, 1223 and 1295 by increasing the amount of the franchise tax on South-
western Bell from 517,000 annually established on April 9, 1962, to 525,000 annually
established on January 1, 1968. Ordinance No. 1777 dated January 4, 1971, increased
franchise tax from 525,000 annually to 537,500. Ordinance No. 2257 increased this tax
to S75,000 for 1976 with 518,750.00 to be paid over a 3 -year period and prescribed a
5100,000 annual tax to begin in 1977. There is no specific time frame for this
agreement.
Arkansas Western Gas Company - Franchise tax was increased from 2 percent of
gross to 3 percent of gross sales of natural oas to domestic and commercial consumers
within the City limits on January 1, 1968. Ordinance No. 2236 increased the tax
rate to 4 percent. This agreement runs for 10 years certain from July 1, 1976. A
1 percent tax is applied to industrial customers.
