Understanding Your Fire Tax

Due to the approval of the Advance Rural Fire Protection District by voters in May of this year, property owners in that specific district will see two line items on their tax notice. Please note that ALL Davie County property owners will see ADVL followed by a number that represents “Ad valorem” tax (i.e. the 4 cent county-wide fire tax). For those who are in the Advance Rural Fire Protection District, they will see two different lines:

--ADVL followed by a number that represents “Ad valorem” tax (i.e. the 4 cent county-wide fire tax).

--FIRE ADV RURAL which is the additional voter approved fire tax for that district only.

Below is an example of how this will appear for property owners who reside in the Advance Fire District.
