Councilmember Brannan inquires about the Comptroller's office forecast for FY 2025 property tax collections, which is below OMB's forecast.

  • The Comptroller's forecast for FY 2025 property taxes differs from OMB's by about $400 million
  • The main difference is that the Comptroller's office did not incorporate lien sale revenues and its impact on collections
  • The potential impact of a lien sale on the delinquency rate could explain most of the difference between the forecasts

As a result, our forecast for FY '25 property taxes differ by about $400,000,000 Did you incorporate the lien sale revenues and its impact on your collections?

Reserve.

It's not necessarily the levy because that's already been fixed.

We did not make an assumption regarding the potential impact of lead sale on the delinquency rate, which 1% would be 300 and something million dollars explaining most of the difference.
