Summary & Background (First sentence includes Agency recommendation. Provide an executive summary of the action that gives an overview of the relevant details for the item.)
Scope of Work: The Board of Commissioners approved 2025 millage rates for the General fund, Bond fund, and Fulton Industrial Special Services District on August 6, 2025. At that time, the Fulton County Board of Education had not yet adopted a 2025 millage rate. On August 19, 2025, The Fulton County Board of Education is expected to approve a millage rate of 17.080, which requires ratification from the Fulton County Board of Commissioners. Their 2024 millage rate was also 17.080. They have provided for the required public hearing and advertised their levy per State law. Attached is the Fulton County Supplemental Resolution affirming the Board of Education’s 2025 millage rate along with their Resolution passed August 19, 2025.
