What Amendment 3 does to your CRA's tax base
Amendment 3 raises the non-school homestead exemption from $50,000 to $250,000. Homestead value comes off the roll, and holding revenue flat means a higher millage on everything left. Our 3D maps show it parcel by parcel for all 34 cities in Miami-Dade, and for a CRA that asks, we model it on your CRA.

To collect the same $61.5M after Amendment 3, Miami Gardens has to raise its rate by almost a third, and the increase lands on non-homestead property. Drag across the map to apply it.

City operating millage after Amendment 3
Miami Shores, Biscayne Park and El Portal hit Florida's 10 mill cap, so a higher rate alone cannot replace what they lose. Biscayne Park gives up 26.0% of its taxable base and can raise its rate only 7.5%. For a CRA, a smaller homestead base and a higher millage pull the increment in opposite directions, and the TIF Projector lets you test both for your district.
