Iowa tax overhaul fuels school funding shifts and service tax debate
The 62nd General Assembly approved a $100 million tax package aimed at financing county schools and increasing state aid, with personal property tax exemptions and a 18 to 20 mill replacement goal. Critics warn local budgets may rise as implementation lags, while a potential service tax could raise substantial revenue. A proposed special session looms if revenue exceeds expectations. The plan also expands homestead credits for seniors under 3500 income and raises agricultural land tax credits, effective in 1969 for low income homeowners.
