For several decades, owners of mobile homes were required to pay mobile home tax and purchase a mobile home tax decal, but those days are over.
Chattooga County Commissioner Andy Allen recently signed a resolution to remove the requirement for annual tax decals on mobile homes.
This change is intended to simplify tax processes for residents. Previously, mobile homeowners had to display a large decal on their homes each year after paying property taxes.
Recent legislation allowed counties to opt out of this requirement, and Chattooga County has decided to do so.
This resolution means that mobile homeowners no longer need to worry about displaying a decal, making it easier to manage property taxes. Chattooga County Tax Commissioner Joy Hampton noted that her office will track payment statuses without the decals.
The commissioner believes this resolution represents a modern approach to property tax management in Chattooga County, improving the experience for residents.
