The Alto Town Council will meet this week to discuss whether or not they plan to accept tax revenue from the Banks County TSPLOST and energy excise tax.
The City of Baldwin has recently discussed both of these issues. The energy excise tax in Banks County put a tax on energy source usage for manufacturers, and the county is distributing that tax revenue to its municipalities.
Banks County has also approved a TSPLOST, called the county’s “roads and bridges SPLOST,” similar to the “roads and bridges” TSPLOST Habersham County is discussing.
The town, which is located in both Banks and Habersham Counties, will have to make the decision whether or not they will accept those funds and discuss how they will need to move forward with the process of receiving those dollars, and how they must be spent.
The meeting will begin at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday at the Alto Town Hall, located at 186 Wade Street. To see the agenda, click here.
