Darlington council sets college property tax
The Florence-Darlington Technical Education Commission must file an itemized annual budget with the Darlington County Council. The Council reviews and can change the budget. When the Council approves it, the county auditor must levy a property tax on all taxable property in Darlington County to fund the approved amount. This can raise property tax bills for homeowners. The law takes effect March 13, 2025 and first applies to Fiscal Year 2025-2026.
