Property Taxes + Exemptions and Water/Sewer Fees in Georgia

You may have recently received a property tax notice for properties associated with your parish, mission, or school. Property valuations are generally sent out in the Spring, followed by a period during which the valuation can be appealed to the county tax commissioner, and then property tax fees are generally due in the Fall. It's important to understand your responsibilities for water, sewer, and storm water fees, as well as how property tax exemptions work, especially regarding religious use. This memo provides information and examples to help you.
