BOC ready to set rollback millage rate

WHITE COUNTY, Ga. The White County Board of Commissioners will set the 2022 millage rollbackrate at 9.505 when it meets in a called session Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. in the County Administration Building on Helen Hwy.

The county initially sent a notice to the newspaper that the millage rate would be set at 10 mils because the tax digest was late coming in, When the digest finally came in, it was better than had been anticipated, leading commissioners to decide to lower the rate a full percentage point to 9.505

The Board will also consider Kendyl Brock’s request to rezone 5.14 acres at 540 Ascension Trail in Cleveland to be placed into the County’s short-term rental program. 

The Board will also consider Margaret Guzinski and Carl Heck’s request to reason 1 acre at 349 Horton Creek Road in Helen to be placed into the County’s short-term rental program.
