About these numbers

Turner County (county records): net taxable digest $297,246,100 (2025) and $310,704,733 (2026); 2025 rate 11.000 mills and levy $3,269,707; rollback rate 10.257 and proposed 14.000 mills (+36.49%) from the November 2026 Notice of Property Tax Increase; proposed 2026 levy $4,349,866; hearings Nov. 23 and Dec. 1, 2026, vote Dec. 1 at 6 p.m.; $525,000 FLOST fund in the FY2027 budget; June 18, 2026 vote for the budget option with a 3-mill increase. "If FLOST came off" (about 8.57) is our math.

City of Ashburn: 2025 rate 7.802 mills (Georgia Department of Revenue). The city digest (about $57.8M) and levy (about $451K) are estimates from the 2019 to 2020 audit. The 7.46 rollback assumes city values grew 4.5% like the county's; the real figure isn't published. Ashburn's FLOST share isn't public; the 34% is a what-if. As of Nov. 11, 2026, nothing about the city's 2026 rate is posted on its documents page.

Bills are for a $100,000 home (taxed on $40,000), before homestead and other exemptions.
