After a nearly six-month legal fight, the city of Gainesville on Monday essentially won the right to get additional tax revenue payments from Hall County, only to turn around and pay it right back. Gainesville sued Hall in February for about $5.3 million, asserting the county breached a 2008 agreement to pay the city accelerated special purpose local option sales tax payments for the first four years of a six-year period, with the city paying back any excess funds during the last two years. The county stopped the 48 scheduled payments at 39 because the city had already received about 14.79 percent of the total SPLOST VI revenues, which came in lower than originally expected.
