Budget PlanningCounty TaxesDetected Jun 16, 2026

On June 8, 2026, the Troup County Board of Commissioners authorized moving forward with local legislation to allow adoption of a Local Homestead Option Sales Tax (LHOST) under new state law. The Board discussed revenue impacts of shifting from property tax to a 1% sales tax dedicated to homestead exemptions, reviewed ACCG model ballot language, and directed staff to advertise and coordinate with the county’s legislative delegation ahead of a June 16 special legislative session. Although not a procurement, this initiative will shape the County’s long‑term revenue mix, potentially freeing or constraining funds for capital projects, IT systems, and services.Vendors in public finance, revenue modeling, voter education, and ERP/tax billing systems can leverage this as a signal that the County may revisit its financial systems, communication strategies, and capital plans in light of a new LHOST structure.

Estimates show homesteads generated 9.1M of 40M 2025 ad valorem revenue; any LHOST adoption will reshape property tax bills for homesteaded and non‑homesteaded properties.
