Ballot measures in Georgia this November
Two amendments to the state’s constitution and a statewide referendum will appear on the ballot this November.
The first measure is designed to slow property tax hikes that occur when home values rise. Most property tax money goes toward public schools. If voters approve, home property assessments would be capped at the inflation rate for the previous year.
The second proposed constitutional amendment would create a state tax court responsible for handling cases concerning complaints involving the state Department of Revenue.
A third ballot question asks voters to increase the tax exemption for personal property — such as business inventory and farm machinery — from $7,500 to $20,000. The tax break excludes motor vehicles, trailers, and mobile homes.
