Douglasville GA Increases Property Taxes by 17% as Douglas County KS Adjusts Mill Levy Amid Rising Property Values
Residents in Douglasville, GA, and Douglas County, KS, are facing changes in property taxes—one seeing an increase, the other a reduction offset by rising property values. In Douglasville, the city council passed a property tax increase of almost 17 percent during Thursday night's meeting, as reported by FOX 5 Atlanta.

Date Night: Country Club Plaza
For this month’s date night, head to the Country Club Plaza for one or more of these stellar options!. The Puttery is one of Kansas City’s newest entertainment venues. It’s like swanky lounge meets high-end Putt-Putt. I’ve honestly never been to a place quite like it—definitely the coolest mini golf course anywhere when it comes to the scenery. Some of the holes are quite challenging as well. Choose from three courses to play on, one for $18 or all three for $25. We chose the latter because it’s definitely the better deal. When you arrive at The Puttery, you check in with the main concierge who will give you the rundown. Then you can make your way to one of the golf courses or to one of several bar areas for drinks and food. Each course has digital scorecards and its own concierge who checks you in and delivers drinks to you if you choose to order any. We did not eat or drink while we were there, but we saw some pizzas and other things that looked delicious. We will be returning for sure!
