Note: On October 18, 2016, the Bureau of Labor Statistics announced a correction to four months (May-August) of the 2016 monthly CPI-U figures.
These revisions would have resulted in a slight downward change (0.68 percent to 0.67 percent) to the 2017 allowable levy growth factor (inflation factor) for
calendar year local governments. Due to the late timing of these revisions, the 2017 inflation factor was not changed. For more information on the changes
to the CPI-U, visit the Bureau of Labor Statistics website at: www.bls.gov/bls/errata/cpi-price-corrections-10182016.htm.

Data For Prior Years

As defined in law, the allowable levy growth factor is the lesser of one plus the inflation factor or one
and two-one-hundredths of a percent. Since July 31, 2013 the inflation factor has been less than 2
percent, therefore the allowable levy growth factor has been equal to one plus the inflation factor.
