2024 Tax Millage Rate Public Hearings

The City of Statesboro has tentatively adopted a millage rate that will require an increase in property taxes by 24.56 percent. All citizens are invited to the public hearings on this tax increase, which will be held at City Hall Council Chambers, 50 East Main Street, on September 10, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., and September 17, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. This tentative increase will result in a millage rate of 9.125 mills, an increase of 1.799 mills from the 2023 rate. Without this tentative tax increase, the millage rate will be no more than 7.326 mills. The proposed tax increase for a home with a fair market value of $200,000 is approximately $140.32, and the proposed tax increase for a non-homestead property with a fair market value of $200,000 is approximately $143.92.
