Liberty Hill ISD's tax rate election passing, early voting results show

Early voting results from Williamson County show Liberty Hill ISD’s tax-rate election through Proposition A passing.

The update: In the Nov. 4 election, Liberty Hill ISD voters will decide whether to approve an increase to the district’s tax rate through Proposition A.

Unofficial early voting results show 2,409 voters, or 56.14%, cast their ballot in favor of Prop A while 1,882 voters, or 43.86%, voted against.

On the ballot: LHISD is asking voters to approve a M&O tax rate of $0.7389 per $100 valuation, which is about $0.07 higher than the FY 2024-25 M&O tax rate of $0.6669 per $100 valuation.

The interest and sinking, or I&S, tax rate would remain at $0.50 per $100 valuation, making for a combined tax rate of $1.2389 per $100 valuation.

Something to note: The district called a tax rate election in November 2024, during which voters failed to approve a nearly $0.06 tax rate increase.
