Answer:

The answer is "SPLOST".

Step-by-step explanation:

A central tax rate with special purposes can support capital expenditure projects in Georgia. Its optional tax rate for parks, schools, highways as well as other government infrastructure levied by every jurisdiction is a 1% tax. The electorate shall decide if the projects described are financed via SPLOST or government leaders are not required to raise property tax for funded projects.
