Hoff Urges Action To Curb Spiraling Taxes
Gov. Philip Hoff urged legislative action on five proposals to curb rising local property taxes in Vermont. He said towns would not lose revenue and costs would be under $1 million in 1970, rising to $1.5 million later. The plan sets a $5 equalized tax rate ceiling and a 7 percent tax limit for low income residents, with revisions to aid formulas and school taxes based on ability to pay.
