The parcel tax has taxed approximately 9,500 parcels within the district — $118 for each dwelling unit and $32 for any undeveloped parcels — and has produced about $860,000 each year for the hospital since it was passed in 2006, according to the report. The hospital’s board of directors decided extending the parcel tax an additional five years was the best option for raising funds for the hospital.
Trinity Hospital’s operating losses decreased from more than $1 million in 2009 to approximately $768,000 in 2010.
