Wisconsin’s Nelson foresees substantial 1961 63 tax hike
Gov Gaylord Nelson said a substantial tax increase will be needed to meet 1961 63 revenue needs though he has no pre determined ideas for raising money. He praised a 19 member tax revision commission for its comprehensive study and noted its sales tax and income tax proposals, while cautioning that details won’t be decided until the Legislature sees his recommendations. The report recommends replacing Wisconsin’s 35 year old tax sharing with a per capita equalizing aid system funded by a 190 million dollar pool and a formula based on property value income and population to reduce local mill disparities.
