NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX INCREASE
The Evans County Board of Education has tentatively adopted a millage rate which will require an increase in property taxes by 1.66%.
All concerned citizens are invited to the public hearings on this tax increase to be held at the Evans County Board of Education Central Office, 705 West Main Street, Claxton, GA 30417 on Thursday, August 31, 2023 at 10:00 am, on Thursday, September 7, 2023 at 6:00 pm, on Monday, September 11, 2023 at 5:30 pm, and then again on Thursday, September 14, 2023 at 10:00 am.
This tentative increase will result in a millage rate of 14.00 mills, an increase of .228 mills. Without this tentative tax increase, the millage rate will be no more than 13.772 mills. The proposed tax increase for a home with a fair market value of $100,000 is approximately $9.12 and the proposed tax increase for non-homestead property with a fair market value of $50,000 is approximately $4.56.
