Business owners in Dunwoody are seeing their property tax assessments quadruple unexpectedly because of a change in Georgia law, the chief of staff for DeKalb County Commissioner Nancy Jester has told a homeowners' association. The aide, former Dunwoody Mayor Mike Davis, says small business owners are being hard hit.
According to an article in The Crier, Commissioner Jester said DeKalb County's assessor is counting income generated by properties. State Rep. Michael Wilensky (D-Dunwoody) has sponsored a bill to change the law. The new measure has been approved in the Georgia House.
