Mill levies are set based on the "assessed value" which does factor in

use and comparative property values along with parcel size, but while
the
mill levy is set each year, the assessment is changed only about every
five
years. There is no direct link between the income the property
generates
from year to year and the assessable value of the property, so no, the
renters don't pay their "fair share" of the school taxes
===============
Semantics.
No, reality. It's mathematical reality that non-property-owners pay a tiny
fraction of school taxes imposed on property owners and always have.
