Face to Face: Kevin Payne, Floyd County Tax Commissioner
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Georgia's new title tax law goes into effect March 1.
On Monday, tax commissioners from Gwinnett, Fulton, DeKalb and Cobb counties held a news conference asking residents for patience as they switch to the new system, a one-time title tax that replaces sales tax and the annual "birthday" tax. They said motorists should use phone or mail-in options to avoid long wait times.
Claudia Lawson, DeKalb County's tax commissioner, predicts that the change will be frustrating for taxpayers
Some counties, such as Cobb, are hiring additional staff and setting up dedicated help lines to deal with the crush of customers.
