Fulton County property owners are receiving the 2022 property value assessment statements. The assessment statement includes an estimate of taxes due later this year. The assessment itself is not a bill that must be paid now. The statement’s mailing date, however, does trigger a 45-day window of time during which you have the right to appeal your assessment if you feel it’s wrong or unfair.
The Atlanta BeltLine Partnership, Atlanta Legal Aid, and Grove Park Foundation are partnering to help guide property owners in BeltLine neighborhoods through the tax appeal process. An upcoming July 13th information session is designed to help you understand your property tax statement and the options available should you wish to appeal.
Details about the in-person and online information session are available here.
The Atlanta City Council has approved the City’s budget for Fiscal Year 2023, which begins July 1, 2022 (Legislative Reference No. 22-O-1337). The general fund budget totals approximately $734 million.

More budget information is available on the City Council web site and from Council President Doug Shipman.
Historical disinvestment and environmental injustices across the entire South River watershed must be addressed. The City of Atlanta and DeKalb County can begin by choosing to co-invest in the quality-of-life for residents in the South River Forest area. But they must hear from you.
Please complete the survey created by the Atlanta Regional Commission to help determine the South River Forest boundaries and key priorities for future planning efforts.
More information and the survey are available here.
WHAT: The Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) has announced the deployment of an online survey to help determine and evaluate communications for the proposed I-285/I-20 West Interchange project.

This project is part of a series of projects that comprise the Major Mobility Investment Program (MMIP).
WHEN: The online survey launched on June 28 and can be accessed using the following link: https://bit.ly/i285i20-WIC-Survey-01
