Odessa不会在2025年提高财产税, 因为国家审计延误引起法律关注, Odessa won't raise property taxes in 2025 after state audit delays led to legal concerns, but it's working to fix compliance and avoid lawsuits.

奥德萨市市长卡尔·亨德里克(Cal Hendrick)表示, 2025年该市不会提高地产税, 因为检察总长肯·帕克斯顿(Ken Paxton)因延迟审计而违反参议院1851号法案, Odessa Mayor Cal Hendrick says the city will not raise property taxes in 2025 after Attorney General Ken Paxton cited violations of Senate Bill 1851 due to delayed audits. 该市自2022年以来一直面临人员配备问题,正在努力遵守州的要求,并预期不久将完成其2023-24年的审计。 The city, which has faced staffing issues since 2022, is working to comply with state requirements and expects to complete its 2023–24 audit soon. Hendrick提出解决办法,以避免费用高昂的诉讼,建议不提供新的税收收入,并与Paxton会晤。 Hendrick offered a settlement to avoid costly litigation, proposing no new tax revenue and a meeting with Paxton. 该市已经对2021至22年和2022至23年进行了审计,目的是恢复其债券评级。 The city has already filed audits for 2021–22 and 2022–23, and aims to regain its bond rating.
