Gainesville City Schools formally approved the lowering of its millage rate at a work session Tuesday. The millage rate of 6.89 was approved for the 2015-2016 fiscal year, a decrease from the previous millage rate as 7.48. The board tentatively approved the tax rate on Aug. 17 but required advertisement for at least 14 days since the first vote.
