What We Do
It is the responsibility of the Board of Tax Assessors to make sure that all personal property and all real property have been returned for taxation at the proper valuation. It is the duty of the county appraisal staff to make appraisals of the fair market value of all taxable property; maintain tax records and maps for the county; prepare annual assessments of taxable property; mail assessment notices; inspect mobile homes to determine if the proper decal is displayed; and provide information to the Georgia Department of Revenue as requested.
