NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX INCREASE – GENERAL FUND 

In compliance with the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights state law, the Cobb County School District announces it has tentatively adopted a general fund millage rate of 18.70 mills.

The Cobb County Board of Tax Assessors assesses all county property in compliance with state law.  If property is reassessed upward, then the Cobb County School District will see an increase 

in tax revenue.  

To collect the same revenue as last year and avoid an increase in taxes of 3.80%, the millage rate would have to be decreased to 18.016 mills, defined as the “roll-back” rate described in the 

Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. In accordance with Georgia Law, the Cobb County Board of Education must conduct 3 public hearings to receive public comments concerning this issue if it 

does not adopt the roll-back millage rate.  

All concerned citizens are invited to the public hearings to be held: 

• Thursday, July 9, 2026 
• 11:30 AM – Session 1 
• 6:05 PM – Session 2 
• Board Room – 514 Glover Street, Marietta, GA  30060 

Time and place of additional public hearing: 

• Thursday, July 23, 2026 
• 6:30 PM – Session 3 
• Board Room – 514 Glover Street, Marietta, GA  30060 

The Cobb County Board of Education will establish millage rates at a meeting: 

• Thursday, July 23, 2026 
• 7:00 PM 
• Board Room – 514 Glover Street, Marietta, GA  30060
