Resolve, To Create a Study Commission To Evaluate the County Tax Structure
Sec.
 
CONCEPT DRAFT SUMMARY
This resolve is a concept draft pursuant to Joint Rule 208.
This resolve proposes to establish a study commission to evaluate the county tax structure as it relates to property valuation. The goal of the study is to construct a solution that would uncouple the county tax base from property tax and land valuation. The study commission will examine different ways to assess county taxes, including, but not limited to, assessment based on the population or on consequential services rendered.
