School tax ruling may halt reform
SACRAMENTO AP The State Supreme Court ruling on school funding may slow property tax relief and hinder bipartisan tax reform talks set to begin next week. Assemblyman William T Bagley said a smaller Democrat backed reform plan may still pass, but the decision could be a fatal blow to the property tax portion. The ruling requires the legislature to devise a new school funding method within about six months, potentially trimming or eliminating property tax relief in the major reform effort. The California Teachers Association urged swift action, warning the fiscal band aids will no longer suffice.
