• Mayor Says Greensboro May Have To Raise Tax Rate If Revaluation Moratorium Becomes Law (rhinotimes.com) — Pleasant Garden’s town budget could be upended by a new state bill that freezes Guilford County’s 2026 property revaluation for a year, forcing all local governments to keep using 2022 values. That may leave Pleasant Garden and neighboring cities choosing between raising tax rates on older values or cutting services, while Greensboro’s mayor warns of rising costs for public safety, infrastructure, and basic operations.
