Taxes ease for deteriorating Pennsylvania districts faces Senate vote
A proposed measure would exempt improvements to industrial or commercial property in deteriorating areas from higher real estate taxes for up to 10 years, with local authorities defining boundaries and schedules. The plan, tied to a 1968 constitutional amendment, aims to spur urban revitilization and opens to counties and school districts if two or more taxing authorities join. Senator James E. Ross leads the bill, arguing current law deters needed improvements.
