Numbers from the documents submitted to the Texas County Clerk’s Office show what revenues would have been paid out from Seaboard Foods’ current tax increment district if it were paid and disbursed to all parties for 2019. (Numbers do not include the expansion that will be up for a vote of the Guymon City Council on Dec. 10. Current valuations will go on the tax rolls, while the proposed expansion will be in a new tax increment district.)
The document shows the City of Guymon received a TIF payment of $1,409,611.

• $674,259.86 - School General Fund
• $96,242.28 - School Building Fund
• $337,975,81 - School Sinking Fund
