What stands out about how Domino is run

Read from the city’s budget and official records.

The school district

Queen City Independent School District

Domino’s K–12 school district, shared with Queen City. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.

Your share of the 2022 budget

About $24,395 per resident a year, or $66.84 a day

Day-to-day services only (a Census Bureau estimate). The biggest line: courts, inspections & corrections, at 31%.

Where the money comes from
Property taxes 63%Sales taxes 23%Fees & charges 8%From the state 3%Interest, fines & other 3%

Revenue is well above spending. That usually means Domino collects property taxes for the school district and county and passes them on, so only its own spending is counted.

An estimate

Domino didn’t report all of its 2022 figures to the Census Bureau, so most of these numbers are the Bureau’s estimates.

Not in the receipt.Building projects $404,000; interest on debt $34,000. With these, the whole budget was $2.5 million.
