Final Johns Creek Property Tax Hearing On Monday
The city will vote on Monday evening to set its millage rate for the upcoming fiscal year.
The Johns Creek City Council will hold the last of three public hearings on its proposed 2014 millage rate.
The meeting will start at 7 p.m. July 14 in the Council Chambers at Johns Creek City Hall, located at 12000 Findley Road, Suite 300.
The council is expected to adopt its millage rate immediately following the hearing.
The city now has a published five-year history of its tax digest, property revenues and millage rate. Johns Creek is proposing to hold its millage rate at 4.614 mills, the same it has been since its incorporation in 2006.
