Key takeaway City officials have announced that the rate will decrease from 13.
The City of Conyers is planning to reduce its property tax millage rate. 296 mills. This change is part of a larger trend, as the city has lowered its millage rate eight times in the past twelve years.
The impact of this rate reduction on property taxes is not immediately clear. City officials note that the board of tax assessors must review property values before the effect on taxes can be determined. Further details on the millage rate reduction and its potential impact on property taxes are available from the City of Conyers.
