Royston officials placed a proposed resolution to opt out of a homestead exemption under OCGA 48-5-44.2 on a February 2025 agenda, opening a local property-tax question whose outcome remains unclear. The city agenda identifies the item for consideration, but it does not record a completed City Council vote or a final decision.
