Cole outlines state tax reform measures in lecture
State Rep. Kenneth J. Cole described Senate Bills 1085 1086 and House Bill 1185 at a YWCA luncheon as tax reform not tax cuts aimed at all income levels by shifting revenues from nuisance and real estate taxes to a local income tax. He said the plan reduces nuisance taxes while allowing local flexibility with a 0.75 percent cap on local income tax and a 0.25 percent municipal services tax. He noted opposition to radical change and defended protections for tenants, while announcing his bid for a fifth term.
