Ficker Tax Limit Ballot Question Cleared in Montgomery
Montgomery County Council approved wording for a ballot measure that would cap the county income tax at 52 percent of the state rate, costing the county an estimated 60 million in fiscal 1996. The plan, drafted by Bethesda attorney Robin Ficker, would force a unanimous nine member override on tax changes and shift emphasis to higher property taxes. Council members warned it could hurt schools and libraries and provoke a public defense of Ficker’s amendment.
