The Henry County Board of Education will host three meetings in the upcoming weeks regarding the adoption of the millage rate for the 2016-2017 school year. There is no proposed increase as the millage rate is already at its current limit of 20 mills, which has been in effect since 2007. The hearings are required because higher property values mean an increase in tax revenue. The first two meetings are July 19 at 9:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. The third meeting is July 26 at 5:30 p.m. with the final adoption of the millage rate set for 6 p.m. All of the public hearings will be at the school board’s central offices, 33 N. Zack Hinton Parkway, McDonough.
