State Board eyes end to free ride in school aid
In Sacramento the State Board of Equalization declared it would not tolerate counties getting a free ride on school aid. It proposed raising assessed values in Sonoma and San Bernardino by 34 and 20 percent respectively to align with a 35 percent market-value standard, aiming to curb subsidies to low-valued counties. Alameda would lose about 1.7 million annually if assessments rise to that standard, while Marin officials defend their 1 million revaluation and seek postponement until their program concludes.
