Commissioners reapprove millage rollback resolution and PT‑35 forms after calculation correction
Summary
Hart County commissioners reapproved the millage rollback resolution and PT‑35 advertising form after the county administrator recalculated the rollback rate; the board voted 5–0 to reapprove the forms. Administrator said the correction lowered the rollback rate slightly, estimating about a 2.5% tax decrease from last year.
The Hart County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to reapprove the millage rollback resolution and the PT‑35 advertising form after a correction to the county’s calculation.
County Administrator (S6) told the board that earlier figures used an incorrect deduction and that the recalculation dropped the rollback rate "from 3.974 to 3.97," which he said "equates to about a 2.5% decrease in the tax, from last year." He described incorporation of an additional half‑mill countywide EMS levy on the PT‑35 form so the records match the county’s official advertising and budget documents.
Commissioner Brown (S8) moved to reapprove the rollback rate, sales tax rollback and PT‑35 forms; Commissioner Teasley (S3) seconded the motion. The board approved the reapproval by voice vote, 5–0.
The administrator said the PT‑35 form reflects the updated millage rates (the new county rate presented in the meeting was 3.972 plus the EMS millage and a school component) and that the county budget had already accommodated the adjustments. No member requested additional actuarial or revenue backup during the meeting.
The board did not discuss changes to exemptions or to individual taxpayer impacts beyond the percent change noted by the administrator.
