You may see technicians in different parts of the city this week flushing hydrants as part of their normal periodic maintenance of the water distribution system. This will improve taste and odor throughout the system. If you notice that your water has a slight tint to it, this is temporary and will clear up. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

NOTICE TO WALTON COUNTY PROPERTY OWNERS AND OCCUPANTS
In accordance with O.C.G.A 48-5-264.1, please be advised that the Walton County Appraisal Staff or Authorized Walton County Tax Assessor Representative may be visiting your property to review your parcel information concerning an appeal filed, return filed, construction of new improvements or additions, review of parcel, conservation use application, and personal property verification. This includes all residential, manufactured homes, commercial, industrial, and exempt properties.
The City of Social Circle properties will be visited from July 18, 2019 until October 31, 2019.
The Walton County Appraiser or Walton County Tax Assessor representative will have a photo identification badge and will be driving an appropriately marked vehicle. If there is any question about the identity of the appraiser or representative, do not hesitate to contact our office at 770 267-1352.
This appraiser or representative does not set values at the time of their visit and will only gather the necessary property information including exterior measurements, various coding, exterior photos, etc. The appraiser/representative will ask questions concerning the interior characteristics. Collecting this information does not normally require an interior inspection. Interior inspection and measuring would only be requested to properly gather the correct square footage. Answering any questions and complying with a request for interior inspection is purely voluntary on the home owners or occupants’ behalf. Otherwise, an estimate of interior measurements and characteristics will be done from outside the structure.
If you have any further questions, please call the Tax Assessor’s office at 770 267-1352.
