Sacramento reports the Watson Amendment seeks to cap property taxes and shift costs to a state base, with a 1.75 percent cap on market value and a 50 cent per 100 value limit for local districts. It faces strong opposition from school boards and fire and city groups, with adoption rules and tax shifts outlined and a likely ballot timing in June or November.
