BRYAN, Texas (KBTX) -Brazos County commissioners proposed a new property tax rate Tuesday for the upcoming fiscal year.

The proposal sets the Voter Approval Rate at .423059 per $100 of property value as the ceiling for further discussion. That’s a fraction higher than the current rate of about 41 cents. For a $200,000 home, the county portion of property taxes would be about $846 a year.
