1 ATHENS-CLARKE COUNTY, GEORGIA INTER-DEPARTMENTAL MEMORANDUM DATE: April 6, 2016 TO: Blaine Williams, ACC Manager Robert Hiss, ACC Assistant Manager FROM: Matt Justus, Budget Analyst SUBJECT: 2015 Comparison of Tax Mill Levies, Exemptions, and This report compares -Clarke property taxes to those of nearby cities and counties and to similar sized communities throughout the state. Comparisons are made based on an owner-occupied home valued at $175,000. Table A (local cities/counties) and Table B (non-local cities/counties) report the 2015 millage rates for state, school, city, and county taxes for cities in local counties and in Georgia counties of comparable size. Standard exemptions and the resulting tax calculation on a $175,000 home are also provided. Exemptions for senior citizens vary by county and are not considered in the calculations. The homestead exemption amount plays a significant role in the calculation of taxes on a home valued at $175,000. In Table A (local cities/counties), -Clarke has the third highest combined millage rate (34.00) but is the second lowest in actual taxes for the six local area counties and cities. This is a result of the -Clarke $10,000 local homestead exemption. All other local counties have the state minimum $2,000 homestead exemption. A home valued at $175,000 in -Clarke paid property taxes of $2,040 in 2015, $157 less than the average tax bill ($2,197) of the six local counties and cities. In Table B (non-local cities/counties), -Clarke has the lowest millage rate (34.00) and is the lowest in actual taxes in the seven city and county comparison. Homestead exemptions range from a low of $2,000 (Hall) to a high of $13,500 (Columbus-Muscogee). The $2,040 property tax bill in -Clarke is $318 below the average of $2,358 for the seven comparison cities. For 2015, the State reduced its millage rate from 0.10 to The State will decrease the millage rate 0.05 mills per year until it is eliminated. Please contact me at if we can provide additional information related to this review. cc David Boyd, Finance Director Chris Caldwell, Assistant Finance Director Tim Taylor, Budget Administrator Jeff Montgomery, Public Information Officer Mitch Schrader, Tax Commissioner -Clarke, Georgia Finance Department 375 Satula Avenue, Georgia Phone: 706/ Fax: 706/ matthew.justus@athensclarkecounty.com
