Dear Ms. Powell:
On August 21,2009 the appraisal review board (ARB) approved the 2009 appraisal records under Sec. 41.12, Tax
Code, thus making it possible for me to certify this year's appraisal roll to each taxing unit.
While the Tax Code provides for approval of the appraisal records to occur on July 20, it also stipulates that the ARB
cannot approve the records if more than 10% of the total appraised value in the district remains under protest. Under
prior law, approval of the records could not occur until less than 5% of the district's total value remained under protest.
The change in the law is beneficial in Harris County where this year we received over 370,000 value protests.
Approved & Certified Accounts
"Approved" accounts on your certified roll include those on which no protest was filed, those on which a late protest
was filed "without good cause" as determined by the ARB, and those on which a timely or "good cause" late protest
has been determined or dismissed due to failure to appear for the protest hearing.
Uncertified Accounts
Your certified roll does not include the value of accounts still under protest; accounts on which the valuation is
incomplete and notices have not been mailed; and properties which are either ready to notice or have been noticed and
on which the 30-day protest period has not elapsed. As required by law, estimated values applicable to these accounts
are summarized in the enclosed reports. Final certified values for properties in these categories will be included in later
supplemental rolls.
Other Information
Also included in your certification packet is a sheet titled "WHERE TO FIND." This sheet notes where to find information
you will need to calculate your effective and rollback tax rates The certified residential homestead report includes a
summary of average residential values in your unit, which is information required for your tax rate hearing notices.
Please review the homestead exemption data in your printouts to ensure that we used the most current information on
your exemption rates. Also, remember that homestead exemptions may be claimed up to one year after the delinquency
date for the taxes on the homestead. This means that your tax base will be reduced by late applications filed during this
extended application period.
Additional value loss may result from provisions in the Tax Code that allow for district court or arbitration appeal
of ARB decisions, late protests, and corrections.
Sincerely,
~

CERTIFICATION OF APPRAISAL ROLL AND
LISTING OF PROPERTIES UNDER SECS. 26.01(c) AND (d)
FOR
City of Laporte
Pursuant to Section 2601(a), Texas Tax Code, I hereby certify the 2009 appraisal roll of properties taxable by
City of Laporte. The roll is delivered in printed and electronic forms.
The total appraised value now on the appraisal roll for this unit is: $2,448,766,280
The taxable value now on the appraisal roll for this unit is: $1,990,847,935
As Required by Section 26.01 (c), Texas Tax Code, I have included with your roll a listing of those properties which are
taxable by the unit but which are under protest and are therefore not included in the appraisal roll values approved by
the appraisal review board and certified above. My estimate of the total taxable value which will be assigned to such
properties if the owners' claims are upheld by the appraisal review board is: $142,795,631
Pursuant to Section 26.01 (d), Texas Tax code, the estimated value of taxable property not under protest and not yet
included on the certified appraisal roll, after hearing loss, is $186,312,370
Signed this 31st day of August, 2009
