The city of Brooklet will hold a series of public hearings this month regarding a proposed tax increase of over 32 percent. Mayor William Hendrix said the reason for the proposed increase is because growth in the city has slowed, and revenues do not meet expenses. “We haven’t had a tax increase in 10 to 15 years,” he told the Statesboro Herald.
