Roswell sets 2026 city tax rate; bills expected by late October

Roswell City Council adopted a 5.232-mill property-tax rate September 28, keeping the operating portion unchanged while increasing the amount assigned to voter-approved bond debt.

The maintenance-and-operations component remains 4.049 mills. Debt service rises to 1.183 mills, an increase of 0.283 mills from 2025. The city attributes that change to its second bond issuance in April 2025.

The bond program supports parks, trails, public safety facilities and other capital projects. City property tax is one part of a resident’s overall bill, alongside separate county and school-district taxes.

Roswell’s September 30 announcement says bills are expected before the end of October, with payment due 60 days after billing and no later than December 31, 2026. Owners should use their actual bill and the city’s property-tax information page to confirm amounts, exemptions and deadlines.
