Gwinnett County holds millage rate steady, property taxes increase

By Will Daughtry News Reporter

The Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners adopted the millage rate for 2024 at a Tuesday meeting. 

The millage rate held steady at 6.95 mills, the same it has been since 2020. It is above the rollback rate of 6.5, resulting in a 6.92% property tax increase for Gwinnett County residents.

The county held the required three public hearings when property taxes go up, with two on June 27 and the third and final one on Tuesday.

"Inflation has impacted everybody, including local government," said Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson. "Holding the rate steady means we're able to continue delivering the superior government services residents rely on.”

The 2024 total property tax millage rate will be 14.71 for those in unincorporated Gwinnett County. 

The millage rate will go into effect on property tax bills in August following its adoption on Tuesday.
