[Lurking Libertarian]

This is one of those situations where it’s hard to justify not simply requiring that the fee be paid as part of the property taxes. But I guess that’s the law.

I am generally libertarian in my philosophy, but this is one instance where compulsory taxation makes more sense. But if the County is going to have this stupid system, they have to enforce it, or else no one will pay, which would be the worst of both worlds.

IIRC South Fulton offered to cover everyone in the county for a flat fee from the County. County put it to the vote. Voters turned it down.
