County charts show taxes — largely property taxes — drive Troup County revenue pie
Summary
Officials said taxes account for most county revenues (about 82% of the pie shown) and that property taxes make up roughly 74% of that tax slice; residential assessed value was presented as about 41% of total assessed value.
During the budget presentation Sonya walked the board through charts showing the composition of county revenue and assessed value. She summarized, "So of that pie there, that 82% that's taxes, 74% of that is property taxes," and said residential assessed value represented about 41% of the total assessed valuation in the county.
Sonya explained other revenue categories and directed the board to itemized line-by-line revenue details in the budget document. A commissioner asked how certain state tax changes might affect future years; Sonya said her presentation used current digest figures and that future impacts would depend on pending state changes and future digest updates.
