TalkGwinnett.com: Are You Ready for Higher Taxes?
I have published an article at TalkGwinnett.com about my home county’s budget woes and a pending millage increase. What is interesting about our situation is how HB-233, if passed, would affect our tax bills:
The passage of HB-233 (and it seems certain) will result in a higher tax bill for you. Even though the county is expecting minimal growth in the Tax Digest (approximately 1%), even that small increase would have allowed the county to reduce the tax increase by .02 mills. Instead, the owner of a $200,000 home will pay $22 more if HB-233 passes. Because the digest depression is cumulative, HB-233 will cost you even more in 2010.
