Officials Discuss FLOST Before Nov. 4 Election
Decatur County voters are being asked to approve a special 1% sales tax to reduce property taxes paid to the county, as well as to Bainbridge and Climax.
A lower millage rate would reduce property taxes on homes, businesses, farms, and other properties.
FLOST taxes are a win-win for property owners, bar none.
According to Decatur County Board of Commissioners Chairman Pete Stephens and Bainbridge Mayor Edward Reynolds, the proposed tax aims to raise revenue to rollback the county's and cities' millage rates.
- House Bill 581 initiated the FLOST process.
- Brian Kemp signed the bill into law last April.
- A majority of voters in Decatur County and across the state approved it in a referendum last November.
