South Fulton County Commissioner Bill Edwards will hold another “Bill on the Budget” meeting on Tuesday to keep residents informed about the 2013 budget process. It will be from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Sandtown Gym, 5620 Campbellton Road.

This county is proposing to raise the property tax rate by 19 percent for unincorporated south Fulton. The proposed 2-mill increase would mean an extra $100 on a $200,000 home, but most homes are plummeting value and wouldn’t see any additional taxes. Information: 404-612-3079.
