An unidentified presiding official at a Peachtree City meeting asked members to adopt the 2025 maintenance and operation millage rate at 5.84 and called for a motion, which was seconded and approved by voice vote.
The adoption matters because the maintenance and operations millage sets the property-tax rate used to fund routine city services; the transcript records only the rate and the voice vote, not individual roll-call tallies. The official said, "I'm just asking for a motion to adopt the mill maintenance and operation millage rate at 5.84." A member responded, "So moved," another said "Moved," and a separate attendee said "Second." The presiding official then called for the vote: "All in favor, say aye." Attendees answered "Aye," and the official declared, "Motion carries."
The motion was taken by voice; the transcript does not record the names of the mover or seconder, nor does it record a roll-call or the number of yes or no votes. The agenda item is recorded in the transcript as the "20 25 maintenance and operation millage rate," spoken in a way that aligns with "2025." The transcript contains no additional discussion of rate-setting rationale, tax impact estimates, exemptions or related budget line items.
After the vote, the presiding official asked for and received a motion to adjourn, which likewise was moved, seconded and approved by voice vote. The meeting concluded with the official stating, "We stand adjourned."
