Dunwoody calls Special called meeting on Monday for DeKalb County SPLOST

SPOLST & EHOST is a complex tax subject involving a raise in sales tax to offset homeowners taxes.  The City of Dunwoody was told this measure might negatively affect a tax property freeze currently in effect and we are the last municipality to approve the County proposal needed for a six year deal.  The City Council deferred the matter at our last meeting and based on what I currently know, I am still not in favor of this IGA and doubt that the City will approve. 

The special meeting was called for Monday 8 am in order to try to understand all sides of issue prior to DeKalb County meeting on Tuesday.  I believe we will have County and State representation at the meeting to raise various points both pro and con.  The DeKalb Board of Commissioners could still go forward with a five year sales tax increase without Dunwoody's approval but by all accounts the Commission is still deadlocked at 3 to 3.
