Johns Creek is in the process of establishing its 2021 property tax millage rate. The city will hold public hearings at 6 p.m. Monday, Aug. 9, and at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 16 at City Hall, 11360 Lakefield Drive.

In 2020 Johns Creek adopted a millage rate of 3.986. This represented an increase of 0.43 mills from the adopted 2019 rate of 3.552. The city’s recently approved Fiscal Year 2022 budget is based on maintaining the millage rate at 3.986 mills (or $3.986 for every $1,000 of net assessed value). With increased property values, residents can anticipate an increase in property taxes at this same millage rate.

The Johns Creek City Council is expected to adopt the 2021 millage rate at 7 p.m. Monday, Aug. 16 during the city council meeting.
