The Stewart County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously on Feb. 11, 2025, to adopt a resolution opting the county out of HB 581’s homestead exemption.
The action occurred during a 6:00 PM public hearing presided over by Chairwoman Arcola Scott. Commissioner Tyrone Nelson moved to adopt the resolution; Vice Chair Thomas Mayo seconded. The board recorded a unanimous vote of approval. County Clerk Carole Stewart recorded the minutes. No citizens attended any of the public hearings held Feb. 4 (8:30 AM and 6:00 PM) or Feb. 11, according to the meeting records.
The hearings provided the formal forum required by the county’s notice procedures; the board took the final, formal step by passing the resolution at the Feb. 11 hearing. The minutes show the motion passed without recorded dissent or abstentions.
The resolution and the hearings are recorded in the county minutes; the transcript does not specify subsequent administrative steps or implementation details. The county clerk’s minutes list the motion and vote but do not include additional commentary from board members or any public testimony. The board adjourned the hearing after the vote.
Next procedural steps were not specified in the minutes. The county’s adopted resolution will be reflected in the official minutes and any required filings, but the transcript provides no further timeline or administrative actions following adoption.
