Why are my property taxes so high?

Why are Deltona property taxes so much higher than everyone else’s?

Deltona property taxes are actually among the lowest among cities in Volusia County. Many taxing authorities other than the City of Deltona, such as the County or the School Board, may also have charges on your tax bill. Your property taxes are based on the millage rate, which is set by the City Commission, and your property’s assessed value, which is determined by the Volusia County Property Appraiser. If you have questions about your property’s assessed value or possible tax exemptions, you can contact the Property Appraiser at 386-736-5901.

Why is there a charge for Stormwater on my property tax bill?

A Stormwater assessment is charged for every Equivalent Residential Unit, or ERU. The assessment is used to pay for stormwater improvements around Deltona to prevent flooding. The City Commission sets the assessment rate each year, and holds hearings that are open to the public before voting on the rate. Stormwater services are meant to benefit everyone and taxpayers may not opt out of these services. If you have questions about the number of ERUs on your tax bill, you may contact Deltona Public Works.
