Though it normally meets the first and third Wednesdays of each month, the Fulton County Commission will not hold a meeting on July 4. There will only be one meeting next month, on July 11, in the Assembly Hall of the Government Center in downtown Atlanta.
That meeting will include a vote — and the board's sole public hearing — on a proposed 5 percent countywide property tax rate increase. It would be the county's first increase in more than two decades and would translate to an extra $25 in tax on a $200,000 home with a homestead exemption and no year-to-year change in assessed value.
