Maryland to keep property tax rate steady at 21 cents
The Board of Public Works will set next year’s tax rate at 21 cents per $100 of assessed value for the eighth straight year, on a recommendation citing declining state debt from a high of 2.4 billion in 1983 to 2.09 billion today. The report notes the debt decline supports a hold on the levy. Maryland HMOs posted losses again, totaling 12.55 million in 1987, with major carriers Kaiser Permanente Lincoln National Aetna and Cigna among owners. The stock market saw gains as Dow rose 22.21 to 2037.30 amid positive economic outlooks, with broad advances and solid indices across NYSE NASDAQ and AMEX.
