The Greene County Tax Assessors mailed annual assessment notices to all property owners on Friday, June 3, 2011. New values have been assessed to conform to the sales that occurred last year including arm's length transactions as defined by current Georgia Laws HB 233 and SB 346. The appeal deadline will be July 18th, 2011 and appeal forms (among other information) can be found here, as well as in the Tax Assessor’s Office. Included in this assessment will be an ESTIMATE of your taxes based on last year’s millage rates. The 2011 millage rates will be determined later in the year. Contact us at 706-453-3355 for appeal procedures should you feel your value is not correct.
