Hughes Cites Effects of Tax Measure
Des Moines report outlines how a property tax relief bill would shift burden to sales and income taxes. Large property holders, industries, utilities and farmers with big land would gain most, while salaried homeowners would save little on property taxes but pay more overall. Proponents argue high levies hinder property ownership and growth. The plan creates a property tax replacement fund funding state school aids and new school funds by raising state sales tax and boosting income taxes.
