Tax relief credit remains in ‘08 bills

Gov. Sonny Perdue signed legislation Tuesday funding homeowner tax relief grants for 2008. Perdue had proposed the elimination of the tax credit from 2008 bills, which would have meant an additional tax bill this year for Madison County property owners of approximately $240.

County property owners recently received their 2008 bills and they can expect another bill later this year if the county digest is completed on schedule.
