There are obviously a lot of emotions on this issue but first let me clear up some of the assumptions made in subsequent posts. Not everyone in Georgia is from Atlanta or it's suburbs and there are a lot of Georgians who feel the same way about Atlanta as was mentioned in some of these posts. Yes, I am blessed with the "luxury" of a second home on the lake which I hope someday to make permanent. No, I do not live in a mega mansion on the lake and while I am pleased to see the value of my property increase it is not the main reason for having a home on the lake. I have been priviledged to to be able to visit Lake Martin since 1965 and my wife is from Alexander City. Taxes are inevitable and will always go up but an increase in taxes should be accompanied by an increase in services for the area being taxed and this is my main issue. As all of our property values increase we need increased fire protection and law enforcement presence and this does not seem to be in the cards.
