On Tuesday, the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners approved a millage rate increase for redisents of Gwinnett County. It will be effective with the March, 2010, Property Tax bill.
The old millage rate was 10.97, while the new rate is an increase of 21% to 13.25. This is the first millage increase in Gwinnett County in 13 years, but the county has experienced value growth over that period increasing the amount of the county budget.
Here are a few more sources with a little more about the story.
The increase represents about $160 for an average $200,000 home. Of course the total tax bill will depend on where in the county the house is located, whether it is inside city limits or in an unincorporated part of the county. Homestead and Senior Exemptions also come into play.
