What actually happened with Dougherty County’s 2026 property assessments?

I want to start this investigation with a simple question: What actually happened with Dougherty County’s 2026 property assessments? A lot of people have talked about how much their values increased, but I want to get beyond individual stories and start building the bigger picture. If you received a new assessment, how much did your property value change from 2025 to 2026? Did you appeal it? If so, what happened? If you have an assessment notice, appeal documentation, public record, meeting information, or anything else that could help document what happened, add it to the investigation. Let’s build the record from the evidence up.
