At this rate there will be a mass exit from Whitfield county. There is nothing about Whitfield or Dalton that justifies the level of taxes it extorts from citizens.
Here's the Whitfield County Board of Education screwing over the county residents as well. Not as bad as the city but damn, 21.99% tax increase.
They speak about the high-quality education at the bottom of this article but four schools in the county are in the bottom 25% in the entire state.
Note that they want to put some blame on the tax debacle as well. They know we know that the 2023 property values plus 10% is straight bu****it. Everyone's property values were assessed far above the 10% and that is why so many of us appealed them.
Public hearings will be held on June 26th at noon and 5:30 p.m. Another will be held on July 3rd at 5:30 p.m. All three will be held at Whitfield County Schools District Office, located at 3264 Cleveland Highway, Dalton, GA.
At this point everyone should refuse to pay their taxes. Can't throw us all in jail. I don't think the Sheriff would even attempt to do so either.
