Arizona House approves 1.5 million tax stabilization fund
The Arizona House advanced a 1.5 million state tax rate stabilization fund to keep the tax at about one dollar per hundred valuation for the 1951 52 budget year. Senate leaders expect concurrence though the plan targets not a building program but stabilizing the levy, with governor Pyle reportedly favoring it. The rider restricts spending except with legislative approval, guiding the fate of the 1952 election year rate.
