Commission denies $2,208.61 tax refund request for Palmetto Street parcel
Summary
Glynn County commissioners denied a refund request of $2,208.61 for parcel 0411301 at 100 Palmetto Street after tax office staff said the taxpayer believed a mortgage company was paying taxes and the address on file was incorrect; staff reiterated legal mailing requirements.
The Glynn County Finance Committee voted to deny a request to refund $2,208.61 in interest and penalties for parcel 0411301 at 100 Palmetto Street. Dessa Harrison of the Office of the Tax Commissioner told the committee the taxpayer believed their mortgage company was paying the taxes and that the mailing address on file was incorrect; the office is required to mail bills to the owner of record as of Jan. 1 and failure to receive a mailed bill does not relieve a taxpayer of the obligation to pay.
A commissioner moved to deny the refund request; the motion was seconded and approved by voice/hand vote (roll‑call tally not recorded in the transcript). The committee declined to grant the requested refund, leaving the assessed interest and penalties in place.
